It is absolutely gorgeous, spotless and beautifully furnished! The owners are so lovely and welcoming! We stayed here, as we were getting married and used it to get ready in- which was perfect as it was so spacious- even the photographer fell in love with the place! We absolutely loved our time spent here and will definitely be returning in the future! Thank you x

The beds are especially comfortable and in line with the feel of luxury evident throughout this property. The games/ pool room downstairs is a wonderful asset with an extremely large wall mounted tv and generous leather settees making it an ideal space to gather and have fun. The rear garden space is safe and totally enclosed for those little ones or as in our case an inquisitive dog. A lovely view across the fields is a bonus too. We were aware of some building work being carried out on site. This was not an issue and we were not disturbed by it all. The owners Jayne and Mark are on site and proved to be most approachable, friendly and helpful. Just on a practical point, it would be useful for a facility to hang outdoor coats, with boot trays beneath to be fitted downstairs perhaps in the passage leading to the toilet, which would help in keeping this lovely property tidy.
