Very peaceful location, great to chill out in the amazing hot tub at the end of the day! Loved all the wooden furniture, very comfortable and gave it a very cosy feel! The shower was great, very spacious with wicked flooring! The slate feature wall was exquisite!

another great stay here. Beautiful place, great location. Even with the unseasonably hot weather, we managed to keep cool, with riverside walks.

It was fantastic! Great hosts, amazing place in an amazing setting! Its was brilliant! Every thing was perfect! Just 2 little things that would have made it even better! The garden isnt totally dog secure, there is a gap in the glas panels that our dog kept trying to get through to get down to the river. If we knew the garden wasnt secure we would have bought a long lead, it just meant we couldnt both enjoy the Hot tub without one of us jumping out to grab the dog. We were there for 5 days, more than 1 toilet roll would have been smashing. Just little things, it was all amazing otherwise!
