Facilities are highly regarded, with mentions of a well-equipped BBQ, outdoor seating, garden games, and a rowing boat. The property is described as having everything needed for an enjoyable stay.
The hosts' thoughtfulness is evident through mentions of a welcome hamper and the property's well-stocked amenities. However, it should be noted that such personal touches, while appreciated, may vary and are not guaranteed for every stay.

Thanks so much for a lovely stay, Mum had an amazing birthday at your beautiful and immaculate farmhouse. It’s clear how much attention and care you put in to making your guests’ stay as special as possible. We really appreciated the personal touch with the welcome hamper; that was lovely. We really didn’t want to leave and we’ll always look back fondly on the holiday.
