The host was lovely. The accommodation was very warm, which in the minus conditions this was welcomed. The dog loved her morning walk around the grounds and being able to let her out at night to toilet in secure fenced off area around the lodge was great for us. Having the swimming pool to yourselves as a family was really good and we would visit again

The four of us had a lovely stay at The Cabin. The only thing was that the bedroom walls do not go to the ceiling so we felt lacked some privacy. Other than that, a truly great week.

The cabin was lovely and the location was perfect.
The cabin was lovely and the location was perfect. Everything we needed was provided and our stay was very relaxing as a result. The swimming pool was a joy as a private swim made the perfect start to each day. The grounds are stunning and we were surrounded by wildlife throughout our stay which was wonderful. We saw deer, rabbits, frogs and a variety of birds and especially enjoyed hearing the owls at night. We were close to the coast and a varied range of English Heritage and National Trust properties which made each day packed with activities. I would highly recommend the cabin for anyone who wants to get away from it all and enjoy nature.

We had a lovely, relaxing family holiday in the Cabin, surrounded by beautiful grounds (with varied and interesting wildlife) and countryside. The swimming pool was wonderful, and we appreciated having it to ourselves. Jean was very welcoming and helpful: we enjoyed her cake and home grown tomatoes.
