The cinema, swimming pool, spa, fire pit and BBQ were all fantastic, and the kids absolutely loved seeing and feeding the chickens, ducks, sheep and peacocks!The kitchen deserves a special mention — it is exceptionally well equipped, spotlessly clean, and has absolutely everything you could possibly need when cooking for a large group. We were all genuinely impressed.Luanne was a wonderful host — so lovely and helpful, with incredibly quick responses and very detailed instructions for all the appliances. The beautiful cheese board prepared for us was such a thoughtful touch and made us feel so welcome.Everything was simply perfect, and we all unanimously agreed that this was a 10/10 stay. We had an absolutely wonderful holiday and would love to come back again. Thank you so much for making our holiday so special! "
