Lovely place, clean and tidy, beautiful setting, garden was gorgeous and looking at the horses was just perfect.Hot tub was nice bonus to relax in. Stables were really spacious and comfortable.However, I do feel that the sofas really do need to be replaced and maybe it could be updated a little bit especially the pictures on the walls and the cracks could be sorted. Slight issue with the with the WiFi connection at times but Alex was in hand to sort and he was most helpful. On the whole I would go back again - unfortunately we have stayed in the Burrows and they were 5 Stars and more so the Stables had a lot to live up too and just did not meet the same standards.
