Clear communication with the owners. They were very friendly. Fantastic house with a lovely garden and the pictures don't do the place justice enough. Definitely reccomend

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sitch Farm. Plenty to do in area for grandchildren, ages 11 and 6. Bedrooms all great. We all said that it felt homely. Garden safe for children and dog. Would have appreciated some milk on arrival. Cake was lovely.
