Mr Jeffers
Firefly was exactly what we were looking for. Beautifully furnished, thoughtfully prepared and set in such peaceful surroundings, it was the perfect place to relax and enjoy some solitude. We would thoroughly recommend Firefly to anyone looking for a peaceful base from which to explore the local area. It absolutely deserves five stars.We’ve already been telling friends and family about our stay and are looking forward to returning ourselves. The care and attention to detail there made our stay so special.

We had a wonderful stay thank you, and would happily give Firefly a full 5 out of 5. It was every bit as luxurious, imaginatively made and cozy as it looked in the pictures, and the view was just lovely. We enjoyed watching the swallows and martins feed above the fields, following the progress of the cows on the other side of the valley, and my son encountered a slow worm on the path, which was fantastic to see. The breakfast pack contents were all delicious and had everything we needed. Dog was also very happy with plenty of meadowy sniffy space near the cabin.

We had a lovely stay in Firefly. The accommodation was quirky but comfortable and the hot tub was a real bonus, with amazing views from cabin & hot tub.
