The place is solidly built yet charmingand the decor is tasteful. Having exclusive use of the hot tub was a real treatand the farmhouse breakfast each morning was a lovely touch. Charlie and Lucy are fantastic hosts who clearly love what they do. We honestly couldn't have asked for more!

We had an amazing stay! The place was spotless and really well looked after. The owners are genuinely lovely, going out of their way to make sure everything's perfect. They've thought of all the little things you might need, which made our visit so comfortable. The breakfast was a proper farmhouse English one, cooked fresh by them-such attentive hosts. Even on a busy morning, they joined us for breakfast, which was so nice. Can't wait to come back again!

We had a fantastic stay! The hosts were genuinely warm and super helpful throughout our visit. The breakfast they prepared was absolutely lovely, really set us up for the day.
