    Amazing place, lovely hosts, dog friendly

    Chris and Val are amazing hosts, so friendly and helpful. We stayed in the studio with a fully fenced yard which was perfect for taking our dog away with us. The studio was very well equipped with everything that we could need and the access to the gardens was amazing. Thank you for such a lovely week away!

    Would definitely recommend for a lovely getaway. We stayed for 2 nights & could have stayed longer.

    Although the location was out of town (approximately 10 minutes), for us this was not a problem as we had a vehicle & it was in a very peaceful setting. The bed was extremely comfortable & was a king bed - room very clean & well set out. Our hosts were very accommodating & very friendly.
