Excellent cottage in a beautiful location and walking distance to many footpaths. Despite a couple of minor hitches with the house (which were both resolved very quickly and with good humour), we thoroughly enjoyed the week and would definitely recommend it to others.

House was beautiful. Everywhere spotless clean.Ample room for 10 of us. Everything you could need was there, cutlery draw very hard to find, could do with a label :) Lots of glasses/plates etc, would struggle to find anything wrong with the house & grounds, all beautifully presented. Hot tub fantastic too. One thing I will say is about the outdoor furniture,could do with a couple more chairs for little table by back door & maybe a couple up the top to accompany the bench table. We made it work by bringing chairs from the dining room & the 2 chairs from the small table to accommodate us all so no big deal but going forward if groups of 10 are staying it would be a bit easier. Fantastic stay, not one of us could fault it. Highly recommend & we wouldn’t hesitate to come back in the future.

We had such a lovely stay at Manor Farm House. The house was beautiful, full of character, and had everything we needed for a relaxing break. It’s set in a wonderfully quiet location, which made it feel like a real escape.During our stay, we hosted a dinner with friends, and it was the perfect setting for a special evening together. The hosts were also incredibly friendly, helpful, and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better.We would happily recommend Manor Farm House to anyone looking for a peaceful and memorable place to stay.
