A delight to find a property and host that surpasses expectations.

Stayed for the weekend whilst settling our daughter into university. The property is lovely - sympathetically restored barns with lovely curated interior decor and features. A beautiful location too. Mark and his family made us feel very welcome with the freedom to explore their land and come and go without ever feeling as though we were intruding. Made for a very relaxing backdrop to what was otherwise an a busy and demanding weekend. Thank you!
