An amazing house for large groups
The house was perfect! We were 19 people and it was incredibly comfortable for sleeping, eating and enjoying. There is plenty of plates and cutlery etc which I know can be tricky sometimes with such big groups. The house was secluded, surrounded by trees and with plenty of space to enjoy. The tennis court and pool are awesome, even in the winter the cold plunge was refreshing! Would absolutely recommend this house and the team that run it are lovely and super helpful. Went above and beyond to make sure we were looked after and had everything we needed. Thanks!

Had a friends reunion at this fabulous house. So great that each bedroom has a bathroom. So much space for everyone and set in a gorgeous location. Highly recommend a sports day on the tennis courts using the sports equipment there. A lot of fun!!

Family holiday ,
We had a very enjoyable stay, made all the better by the new renovations. The new kitchen, dinning area is very well planned. Upstairs the wooden floors make a big difference. It’s an old house and the bathrooms, could do with a few hanging hooks in the showers. As could the bedrooms. Mel the property manager made our stay very pleasant .

Great but...
It would’ve been a great stay if a bit more effort was put on cleaning. A part of that, it was a great location.

Fantastic property!
The property was dated but very clean and great facilities. Plenty of space for large groups, tennis court and pool are fantastic additions. Only downside is the pool is not heated. Owner is great to communicate with and extremely responsive.
