Perfect house to meet up with friends from round the country for walking weekend. Our really lovely host showed us round and gave us all the information we needed. The house was superbly equipped and there was plenty of space for all of us. Our only slight negative is the proximity to what turned out to a busy road - it was a little noisy in the bedrooms with the windows open on hot nights. Other than that we all loved it. The garden was a lovely cool oasis and the table tennis provided much hilarity!
