    We had a wonderful family Christmas at Todd’s Pasture. It is a very spacious and comfortable house. The kitchen is well equipped and great for large groups. Lovely garden with very entertaining pheasants.

    This is a lovely cottage and was ideal for our party of 8 in terms of bedrooms and en-suite facilities however, there were a few issues, if one person was in the shower no one else got any water so no one could shower at the same time. One of the upstairs bedrooms had no thermostat for heating so was cold all the time. The ice machine was broken had an error code on, rang to enquire about it was told by Helen there had been a power cut earlier in the week so clearly no one had checked this so we had to drive into town for ice. Beams in kitchen were covered in cobwebs. On the plus there was plenty of utensils for cooking, plenty of hand wash and cleaning products supplied and loads of wood supplied for the fire and hot tub was lovely and hot all through our stay. The garages where the games facilities are could do with some heating as it was freezing in there.
