Pheasant Roost is at the end of a long single-track lane. It’s probably a 40-minute walk to the nearest shop or pub. No footpaths in the area so had to use the lane all the time. It’s a very lovely barn conversion, very clean and with plenty of kitchen utensils. Pool and jacuzzi were great and used every day. I might have got bored if not there. But the pool was very cold, only the brave or stupid used it. You had to lock the front door, walk around to the back garden, across the lawn which is overlooked by the owners house, to get to the pool, no toilets there which is rather awkward. Take your own towels for pool area. But apart from that, we did have a lovely week.

Fabulous week spent in this beautiful house. The hosts were attentive, friendly, knowledgeable but totally unobtrusive.The house is immaculate, the garden is huge and beautifully kept and the pool and hot tub were the icing on the cake!To have found a property in the UK with a private pool was wonderful, we swam every day. The perfect spot for a few days rest, a base for exploring or to just spend time with family and friends. Perfect ♥️
