Lovely farmhouse stay for our multi generational family. Very spacious and wonderful garden
Lovely house with plenty of space. Garden is stunning and well manicured. Each room has a bathroom which is a huge plus. Farm is immaculate. Located by farm shop and cafe. Lounge was sociable and kitchen facilities had most things that you need which many rentals lack. Welcome hamper was amazing. Bedroom headboards were dirty which was only major disappointment and a couple of the beds could well do with new mattresses. That aside, a wonderful stay and would definitely recommend.
The accommodation was excellent could not fault it.A few minor complaints key safe not very good came apart when opening,oven gloves in very poor condition need replacing. Location was very good with farm shop close by and cafe next door.The cafe was a real bonus,had an enjoyable Sunday lunch there,very friendly staff. Despite the weather everyone had an enjoyable stay. A great place to celebrate my birthday. Hope to visit again in the future.
Lovely house which was perfect for our weekend of five couples! The only criticism I have is that the towels should have been fresher and the oven trays and oven gloves were not acceptable for a property of this price. Overall though, it was a great trip and the on-site farm shop was amazing.
This is an excellent large property and it suited our party of 9 very well. The ensuite bathrooms to all bedrooms are a particularly welcome feature and all appeared to work very well and the showers were excellent. The property also benefits from a large well equipped kitchen, although the dining room is slightly small for 10 and would suit 8 better really, and you have to carry food through the living room to get there. But generally speaking the property is ideal and there really isn't much to complain about. Excellent parking outside with space for several cars, and despite the close proximity of the farm we didn't hear much noise at all as the property seems very well insulated and cosy, and was very warm. As two couples in our party have all electric cars it would have been nice to have a charging point installed as the location is very rural. I guess that this will increasingly become an issue for cottage agencies but progress seems fairly slow so far. Anyway, it wasn't a major problem as they were able to go elsewhere without major inconvenience.
Lovely house on a big working farm. Our housekeeper Tracy could not have been more helpful with all of our random text queries. We had a big family Easter and this was perfect.
The layout of the farmhouse works well for our extended family. In particular the bedroom configuration is great for us all - 2 seniors, 4 adults and 3 grandchildren. Some of the mattresses are lumpy and need replacing to ensure a good nights sleep. The 2nd floor bedroom has some very low beams so beware! The log burner in the lounge is a nice feature but unfortunately smoked very badly on lighting and filled the room with smoke, until it was warm enough to draw through. Generally a nice, comfortable place to stay but could probably do with a bit of updating.
The house was in immaculate condition. It was warm at all times and well stocked. The hamper that was left for us was amazing.
Very good farmhouse in an excellent location with a fantastic farm house on its doorstep. One piece of constructive criticism is the oven needs a good clean and the oven ware needs replacing as its very tired.

As all restrictions have been lifted across the United Kingdom, you are no longer legally required to self-isolate upon a positive Covid-19 result. You won’t be asked to take daily tests or isolate following contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19. This means, if you would like to modify or cancel your booking due to Covid-19, our normal terms and conditions now apply.
If the restrictions are reintroduced and you are forced to cancel your holiday due to legal restrictions, please be rest assured that we will help you to move your booking within the same property, offer a voucher to be used within the same property within a year or cancel your booking in this instance and we will refund you the price you paid in full.
If you are concerned about the potential impact of Covid-19 on your holiday plans, outside of legal restrictions, we strongly advise you to seek out travel insurance which covers you in these and other eventualities.
