We hadden de Borage Garden Suite geboekt, maar kregen een gratis upgrade naar de Lavender Cottage, een volledig huisje met maar liefst 2 slaapkamers. De suites/huisjes bevinden zich op een werkende boerderij en de familie/personeelsleden geven je graag een rondleiding. We hadden half pension geboekt en werden aangenaam verrast met een fine dining ervaring. Marene is niet alleen een fantastische gastvrouw, maar bovendien ook een geweldige kok. De gerechten hadden niet misstaan in een Michelin restaurant. Bedankt Marene voor de gastvrijheid en het heerlijk diner ! We komen zeker terug ! ##### Ann Stayed 1 night in Oct 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Hugh 3 Jun 2025 ##### Hugh Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Graham 4 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities ##### Graham Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 12 Dec 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Dec 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Dr GE 27 Mar 2021 ##### Dr GE Stayed 1 night in Mar 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bruce 30 Sept 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Bruce Stayed 1 night in Sep 2019 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Old Town Chambers, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Cheval-Old-Town-Chambers.h6175181.Hotel-Information) > > [InterContinental David Tel Aviv by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tel-Aviv-Hotels-David-InterContinental-Tel-Aviv.h201031.Hotel-Information) > > [The Titan](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Clydebank-Hotels-The-Titan.h15802615.Hotel-Information) > > [Riads Taghazout](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Taghazout-Riads.d6153242-aaRiads.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Oasis Hotel Waikiki](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Honolulu-Hotels-Aqua-Oasis.h18840.Hotel-Information) > > [Historic Hotels in Oldham](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oldham-Hotels-Historic-Hotel.0-0-d5653-tHistoricHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Continental Hotel Budapest](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Budapest-Hotels-Continental-Hotel-Budapest.h3052491.Hotel-Information) > > [The Kuta Beach Heritage Hotel Bali - Managed By AccorHotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kuta-Hotels-The-Kuta-Beach-Heritage-Hotel-Bali-Managed-By-AccorHotels.h5674374.Hotel-Information) > > [Sure Hotel by Best Western Reading](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reading-Hotels-Sure-Hotel-By-Best-Western-Reading.h64058.Hotel-Information) > > [Begonville Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Marmaris-Hotels-Begonville-Hotel.h1789378.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Enderby](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Enderby-Hotels.d6059369.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Aladdin Camp](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Wadi-Rum-Hotels-Aladdin-Camp.h41361435.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Montecasino](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Montecasino-Hotels.0-l6144098-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Parma](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Parma-Hotels.d2828.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [HiltonHotels Hotels in Hastings](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hastings-Hotels-Hilton-Hotels.0-0-d6274093--bHiltonHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The Boardwalk Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Port-Elizabeth-Hotels-The-Boardwalk-Hotel.h5431069.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Hotel Istanbul at Sultanahmet - Special Class](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Hotel-Istanbul-At-Sultanahmet.h443490.Hotel-Information) > > [Yardley Manor Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Torquay-Hotels-Yardley-Manor-Hotel.h2244567.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Gatwick (LGW) to Porto Santo (PXO)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lgw/pxo/london-to-porto-santo) > > [Flights from London (LHR) to Lima (SCR)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/scr/london-to-salen) > > [Flights from Bristol (BRS) to Wuerselen (AAH)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/brs/aah/bristol-to-aachen) ### Activities > [Things to do in Ruislip](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Ruislip.d177958.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Pitcairn Islands](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pitcairn-Islands.d11718.Holidays-City-Breaks) > > [Cabo Roig Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cabo-Roig-Beach-Orihuela-Costa.d6256436.Attraction) > > [Athens Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Athens.d178231.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### General > [Visit Rute](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rute.dx6124398)
