    It is in a lovely quiet landscaped setting, well equipped and most comfortable. The adjacent owners were very helpful and friendly and provided essential provisions in a welcome pack which was great for the first night. Ideally located for the numerous nearby National Trust and garden properties as well as attractive historic towns.

    Sharon and Clive were wonderful hosts and the welcome pack was a very thoughtful touch. We will definitely be re-booking in the near future.
