The vast property was stylishly appointed, spotlessly clean and perfect for our family group stay. We're already looking for another time we can all get together, to share cosy nights in front of the fire, play board games and enjoy meals around a huge dining table. The location was superb, plenty of walks across the fields, especially to the local pub and the surrounding villages/towns are full of speciality shops and great coffee houses. The hot tub and swing ball tennis were great fun too. The views across the fields and peaceful/no traffic location made this a real gem of a holiday choice. Thank you for excellent communication and this is a highly recommended choice for anyone.
