Lovely relaxing stay at Olive. Would go again. Slight downside for us, we have a v small dog who could get through the gate. Nice location, rose farm shop just down the road worth a visit. Good walks from the door. Good contact from the owner.

Thoroughly enjoyed our week at olive. The kind welcome package was a lovely touch. The kitchen was very well equipped which made us cook more rather than eating out as much. Our dog wynter is always a bit nervous about being away from home in different surroundings, but she settled really well. We hope to come back again next year.
