Helpful and the knowledge he would be available at anytime was good. Golf buggy fun touch and useful too. Shepherd hut was amazing and well equipped. Welcome gift was a nice touch, freshly baked bread and their own apple juice the orchard. Hot tub clean and positioned right next to the hut so felt completely on your own and very private. Brilliant get away and will definitely be returning.
