Exceptionally beautiful setting and truly a gem of a place to be and unwind. Really did not want to leave on day 3. Finished a book sat in the garden whilst listening to the ever so beautiful surroundings. Slept extraordinarily well. Really a very special place. Will most definitely be back in the autumn time hopefully.

    A really peaceful secluded setting, situated adjacent to a picturesque stream. Very large expanse of garden which allowed the dogs to roam. An enjoyable stay.

    A perfect retreat for the Xmas period. Quality of furnishings, bedding and facilities were perfect. Lovely quiet setting. Lovely welcome with prosecco and mince pies! Thoughtful with provision of towels for the dogs. Close to the park and the zoo! Would book again!
