Mrs Farmer
We loved our week's holiday at this property. Everything that we could need or think of, was provided. Yes, even the eggs and pot of honey was really appreciated. Our dog loved his "own area" to run around and explore in the mornings. It was dog proof so I knew that he was safe there. We loved driving around and exploring the local area, even managing to dodge the rain at times. One day, we had to stay in due to heavy rain, but that was no problem at all, as we had everything we needed and it was so comfortable. We went out later in the afternoon for a walk. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, such friendly hosts too.

Perfect, relaxing getaway. Would 100% book again. So many little things made it feel special, the named eggs were a treat, the toys for the children. Wish we could have stayed longer!
