This is an amazing place to stay, sadly I couldn't join the family this year but I know they all loved the house and is really comfortable and well set up. Appreciate the continental breakfast that is provided.

We loved staying here - it had everything we needed and was warm, inviting and obviously presented with care. Enjoyed that we could walk to the farmers market, town, galleries and around the bridges.
