We had the most beautiful time, our 8year old was howling last night, because he doesnt want to leave this magical house. He wants us to move here, so he can have a stream at his house forever. Thank you so very much, it's like living in a museum that has been modernised to top notch standards and it's sparkling clean. We really are so grateful.

Fabulous weekend spent in this beautiful cottage. The pictures do not do it justice - beautifully equipped, immaculate and brilliant value for money. The cottage is set in the grounds of the estate and there are great walks from the door. Kimberly was so helpful before our visit recommending local pubs and helping us with ideas for walks. I took my dog and they are very relaxed although I was worried about the cream carpets. The garden isn’t fully enclosed but I just kept him in a lead. We will definitely return to such a picturesque spot. Perfect for relaxing away from it all. Look out for the postbox to help to find it. Thanks for a perfect birthday weekend
