Perfect Family retreat
We stayed here for a big family birthday long weekend celebration. The house was immaculately finished and really well equipped. We spent a long time looking for somewhere that had a dining table big enough to seat 16+ people together and this was perfect. There are several living spaces for everyone to spread out as well as outside seating when the weather is nice. Lots of parking and beautiful surrounding countryside. Communication with Bridget was seamless. Highly recommend this property.

Wonderful stay for a family get-together
The property exceeded my expectations, everything was very well thought out and had anything we needed on site. We had the 3 x barns which made it very comfortable for everyone to have space and then had the main dining room space for the evenings which was perfect! Would definitely recommend and even stay there again.
