Honestly, I cannot rate this stay highly enough - the best place I have ever stayed at and we really didn't want to leave. I could spend hours in the garden over looking the fields and I'm usually terrible at sitting doing nothing! You will not be disappointed if you book this property, as we plan to do again for 2027!
