We spent a lovely week in bailiffs house- such a quirky stay. Lovely people. Great to see the peacocks, ducks and chickens. However took a while to get used to the peacock wake up calls. We walked to the waterfall - just wasnt an easy trek as we hoped and could only see the top. Beds were comfy, bathroom lovely living room could do with an update.

Was a lovely property. The only thing that let it down was description of the grounds. Not really grounds to walk in and the woodland walks and waterfall weren't accessible
