    Only issue we had, hence the score, was with the oven, which didn't work. Thankfully the grill did.

    Owner allows you to wander the woods and this time we saw and heard a stag with his retinue. Stress levels immediately reduced on arrival. Also very good for bird watching and dark skies.

    Facilities were good but there was nowhere to dry the towels, there was a washing line but no pegs, we were using damp towels, so a heated rail would be good and a small supply of pegs. We found it a bit chilly in the evenings. The bed was very comfortable and it was very quiet except for the sounds of wildlife which was great. I did struggle on the last morning to get the car up the steep hill as it kept skidding on the leaves. I would certainly recommend this for couples. There are plenty of places to visit without having to use your car if you are keen walkers
