“We had a remarkable stay … We (my wife, baby, and I) stayed for two weeks in self-isolation after arriving in the UK, and couldn’t have been happier.
We got lucky with amazing weather during our stay, and were able to take walks in the fields and grounds every day. are sheep, rams, chickens, and beautiful gardens.
Emma and Adrian have done an incredible job at taking care of their lovely property, and it’s truly a beautiful paradise to spend time at.
The accommodation itself is comfortable, and very homely. The bed was wonderful, and the apartment was spacious, clean, and well decorated. The kitchen had more than enough – Emma made sure that our dietary needs were accommodated, and was very thoughtful in all of her preparations for us!
There was plenty of natural sunlight, and the WiFi worked perfectly (I was able to work remotely without any issues).
At night – the area is SO quiet and peaceful, and the sky is absolutely filled with stars.
Two weeks wasn’t nearly enough time –
we wish we could have stayed even longer – and hope to return in the future! “
