Absolutely loved it here it has everything you need. Beautiful house perfect for 10 people. Enclosed garden, seating areas, BBQ. Games Room (Pool and Table Tennis). Cupboard in the kitchen has a variety of books, games and a jigsaw puzzle in. Downstairs Toilet. Upstairs the bedrooms are a fabulous size - two have en-suite and there is a separate bathroom. Nice quiet area, pub nearby - just cross over the road to the bus stop and go down the alleyway. The Bottle and Glass is a lovely pub with a good atmosphere and food.Sally the owner of The Cherry Tree was brilliant she responded promptly to emails and texts.You honestly cannot go wrong with The Cherry Tree, cant wait to return.

This was our second visit to the Cherry Tree, as a big family group the house is perfect. A real home from home with everything you need already there. The owners are also great for recommendations and communication. We hope to come back again soon.
