    The location is fantastic and a great get away from our normally busy lives. It is in no way a criticism but we thought the pod was unnecessary and not in keeping with the surroundings. We would love to go back.

  • Tim

    The house is immaculate and couldn’t have asked for a more cosy and spacious place to base ourselves for the week. Idyllic!

  • Janet

    Excellent outside space and stunning countryside for walks nearby. We loved the hot tub. The welcome box of provisions was very generous, and kitchen well equipped. Great property for a peaceful countryside break.
