St Mildred’s Church is a beautiful conversion. The layout of the rooms and bathrooms suited the 9 in our party very well everything was fresh modern and clean. The provision of equipment in the kitchen was great and the garden and hot tub were enjoyed by us all. Thank you for the welcome pack including one for the dogs who enjoyed the stay as much as we did.
