Wonderful stay
We loved everything about this place, it accomodated 10 of us very very well, there was plenty of parking outside for us all!! The house was stunning, the beds and couches were very comfortable! The grounds around the house were stunning, so picturesque and peaceful. There was a small park for our 7 year olds to play on and a horse and pony who came out to say hello to us everyday. We especially enjoyed sitting around the firepit together and lounging in the living area, we didn't light the fire indoors but it looked lovely. The kitchen had everything you could need and a lovely big AGA cooker. All of us had a fantastic break here and can't wait to return for the next one, would highly recommend!!

Brilliant group accommodation
We had a lovely weekend stay with our family group of 12, age range 8-77 and three dogs. The communication was excellent prior to our stay and the property was warm, clean and very well equipped. We particularly loved the kitchen with the large table and great food prep/cooking areas. The setting was stunning with brilliant outdoor area for the children and dogs. The access lanes are quite narrow in parts though so need some careful driving.The local area is very nice and we did some exploring and would recommend this property to others.
