    A fantastic stay. Cannot fault the house or Fraser's hospitality. Such a beautiful comfortable house in a lovely location. I would fully recommend having Fraser come over to do his wine tasting. His wines are amazing. That really added something special to what was a wonderful weekend away.

    We dined in on the Friday of our weekend and found all the kitchen items/facilities we required. The dining room is an excellent space for socialising. Some of the group used the jaccuzzi during the stay which was easy to operate. We spent the Saturday in Lincoln, including supper. Easy commute. Property is in a very peaceful and quiet location, esp at night. Between us I expect we placed a surge demand on the hot water supply through showers etc and we did run out on the Saturday morning though having located the booster button on the heating panel, this was sorted to our satisfaction thereafter. The owner responded also. Overall everyone was impressed with the venue. Highly recommended.

    The owner was really welcoming and gave us all the info we needed. The house was perfect for our group of friends and all our young toddlers! The children loved the sheep and pony at the bottom of the garden too!
