We had a fabulous week at Stillwater. It is such a lovely place to relax and unwind in and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. We didn't go anywhere during the week and are lucky enough to live a short drive away so we intend to return often. The walk around the lake is so special and our labradoodle loved it. It is so nice to have a space where he could run to his heart's content and be safe. It was great fun spotting the wildlife and the owners have thoughtfully provided a book to log your finds in. It's a magical place. We loved it.
