Three generations enjoyed an excellent three night break in luxury accommodation to celebrate our daughters 21st birthday. The welcome pack was full of nice treats, and the kitchen was very well equipped for catering for groups. Bedrooms and bathrooms were beautiful - the beds were very comfortable and the sheets and towels lovely. In chilly NovembRead moreer weather, good use was made of the hot tub and the log burner was much appreciated. We would have loved to stay longer! Hide
