    The only reason we’ve given 4 stars and not 5 is that, for us, we would have preferred a slightly more comfortable sofa (it seemed to be more “occasional seating” and we found sitting for an evening was not the most relaxing). The other thing was the slightly limited clothes hanging space and somewhere to put bulky outdoor coats etc. where they didn’t keep falling off the hooks! We are NOT nitpicking but hope you appreciate us drawing these things to your attention. All of the other facilities were of excellent quality, and everything you could possibly want was provided - even down to an air fryer. We so enjoyed our brief stay. Hot tub was lovely. Thank you.

    The welcome pack of flowers and Prosecco was a lovely touch. As was the supply of milk, coffee and tea. The hot tub was relaxing after a day's walk in the countryside. We would stay again
