The place was absolutely perfect for a large contingent of people. Myself and 14 of my friends had an absolutely great time. Gamesroom is perfectly sized for a large group of people, lounge was a bit of a squeeze but it was fine given we had a nice rug and a fire in front of us. Location was easy enough to find, we used a sat-nav but do ensure that you have paper directions as well. We tempered expectations with Heating/water pressure/WiFi given the location was quite rural, but we were pleasantly surprised that none of these were an issue at all, especially given the size of the booking. Kitchen was well equipped that I was comfortably able to cook for the 15 strong party. I would advise bringing your own knives though as I found the kitchen knives a tad blunt but thatâs really a non-issue for a couple of days. Rooms were lovely. There is a single bedroom within the master bedroom, so itâs more like 7 bedrooms than 6, which is big positive for a mixed group of people. Also, watch your head

Thereâs no hot water and heating! The owner Caroline was helpful, but there was only so much she could do when the heating system was inadequate for the farmhouse. Everything else was fine - The farmhouse has been carefully designed, beautiful views and well equipped.
