    The on-site person was very quick to reply to texts and help us out where needed. We wish we'd stayed for longer! My only criticism is that it would have been helpful to have some very basic amenities in the kitchen such as salt, pepper and oil. Easily fixable as we ran to a shop but when you arrive late on the first evening it can be helpful to have those things there already to get you going :) but that's my only negative - everything else was great!

  • Sue

    Well suited to a mixed age range with younger members enjoying the heated swimming pool, even in January. The grounds were also beautifully kept and made an enjoyable short stroll. The owner and head housekeeper could not have been more helpful and friendly. Our thanks to all for making an 80th birthday party so memorable. Sue Mead

  • Andy

    Well equipped, especially for cooking and dining. Despite being December was warm and comfortable. The host was especially responsive and helpful, which is a major plus.
