Outstanding stay for our daughters wedding. Property really spacious. Owners very welcoming and really helpful, esp. once they knew one member had mobility issues. Loved the farm eggs and occasional visiting hen !

The photos really don’t do this treasure justice—it is so much bigger than it appears! Every bedroom has its own ensuite bathroom, which felt like such a luxury. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and the kitchen was very well stocked with everything we needed.The flowers and iced buns were such thoughtful little touches and made us feel so welcome from the moment we arrived. A truly wonderful place to stay!
