Dec 29, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful home We stayed over Christmas for a few days and thoroughly enjoyed our stay (Family of 8). Communication before we arrived was great. The home is well furnished and spacious. It’s clean and all the rooms are very generous sized and well laid out. Whilst phone reception is hit or miss the Wi-Fi can’t be faulted and was good in all rooms. I have no hesitation in rating this properly as 5 stars and would totally recommend. We will definitely be looking to come back again. ##### Roy W. Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Heather B. Apr 12, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great spacious property in a lovely location This farmhouse is large and was plenty big enough for our party of seven adults and two children. The configuration of the bedrooms worked for us which was three double bedrooms and two bedrooms with twin beds. All double bedrooms have an en-suite and there is also a family bathroom and cloakroom. One double bedroom is on the ground floor with underfloor heating and central heating. The dining area also has underfloor heating. The kitchen is very spacious with every utensil that you will need.There are two pianos in the property and a games room with pool table and football table, plenty of games, loads of books to read and puzzles to do. There is a utility room with another fridge freezer (already a fridge in the kitchen). Everything was very clean and there is a manager on site at the farm for any queries. Views from the property are great, location is lovely and quiet. We would stay again. ##### Heather B. Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Gwendoline R.
