With the inclement weather the games room was useful with the children. The house was well equipped for our party of eight. Plenty of space for us to spread out. We would heartily recommend West View Farm and seeing the steam train on the Sunday was a real bonus.

What a fantastic place to stay! We were celebrating two birthdays in the same week, and decided to book this place for the week. There were six adults, two children and two dogs. The house is massive inside, a lot bigger than we expected, the photos on the site don’t do it justice! It is well stocked with everything you would need for your stay. There’s plenty to do in the games room which kept the children entertained on rainy days. The house was spotless throughout and we all commented on how clean it was. For a dog friendly place, you wouldn’t have thought other dogs had stayed there, all the rooms were clean and smelt fresh. The road other reviewers have mentioned being bad, there are two ways to get to West View Farm. One of us came in on the really long bumpy road, the other two households came in the other side missing this road. If you drive to the house from the end of the road the house is closest to, you can miss driving on that terrible part of road. I would advise planning your route so you miss driving down the really patchy bumpy road, saving your backs and any potential damage to lower cars. The only suggestion we had which would make the stay better would be adding a second hand railing/bannister to the stairs leading to the bedrooms. Some of our family members found these a bit steep and we feel anybody who is disabled/elderly would really benefit from a second bannister to help them up the stairs. What a beautiful place, with plenty to do locally. We used a Chinese called “Ling Kitchen” and we all found the food was delicious if you are looking for a decent Chinese. Plenty of shops close by, we all had a fantastic stay! We also thought it was great value for money, giving us all a much needed family break together. Thank you West View Farm, from the Lyon clan!
