The property is maintained to a very high standard, is exceptionally clean and provided everything we needed for a great stay. We would most certainly return. A great base to explore from and buzz around the Staffordshire countryside. In fact the bees knees of a find! Thank you Julie and Jason for a wonderful stay.
