It was a beautiful house with lovely gardens and had everything we could possibly have needed , including shower seats which were really helpful for my husband who had mobility problems. We were a mixed group from aged 5 to 85 but there was something to keep everybody happy. I would definitely recommend this property .

Kitchen is well equipped and you have a choice of 4 bathrooms. Hot tub is great and very clean. Great area to explore and this is a perfect base for a large group. Perfect.

The accommodation is spread over one level with easy access for a Mobilty walker through the front entrance and rear patio door. The hot tub was well used. There is an excellent pub, the Three Cottages within walking distance. I would say that the photographs do not do justice to the Manor House. It is nicer than they would suggest. Thank you to the owners who left well appreciated gifts.
