This is what others have said about us.... ...Sarah’s house is fantastic. It feels very secluded yet is just a few miles from Guildford and half that from the village of Bramley. The house itself is beautifully presented with a (well equipped) kitchen/dining room providing a great central space. With the inclusion of the fifth bedroom there was plenty of room for six adults and three children. The garden provides a great area for children to play, along with a very large covered decking area with bbq which is perfect on a warm evening. Sarah was a wonderful host, very quick to respond to queries and very accommodating. She provided several extra touches that really made a difference to our stay. A fabulous place, would highly recommend. ...An oasis of tranquility, we couldn’t have wished for anything better! we visited for a family gathering and had young kids in our group who loved playing hide and seek in the amazing house and gardens. The kitchen was great for preparing a big Sunday roast. Sarah and Deet were outstandingly hospitable, helpful and always quick to respond. We can‘t recommend this beautiful place enough! ...Swanky pad with lots of room. Close enough to get to Guildford with ease. Great kitchen diner perfect for dinner parties! ..We were blown away by Orchard Paddocks! Such a beautifully presented property, from the gorgeous and peaceful large garden to the very comfortable bedrooms, luxury bathrooms and the quirky, yet super impressive kitchen and dining area. We stayed here for around a month and couldn't have asked for more. Sarah's communication was fast and helpful. The house was warm, comfortable, spacious and fitted out to a very high standard. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this property to others. Thank you Sarah and Dietrich for such a wonderful stay. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach loungers ### Pool/Spa - Pool ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport -

The property is absolutely stunning. Beautiful inside and out. Sarah and her family were so lovely and kind. They were available for any questions we had.

The location was great for us to explore england. About an hour to London downtown (drive to Guildford, then take the train). The house was great for us (6 Adults, 2 Kids). The host was great too, and very helpful. The property was great to relax. The photos definitely don’t overstate the picturesqueness of the place. ##### Christian T. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mischa B. 8 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Nice place in the countryside Located near lots of good walks. Wifi was decent for working. Was 30 degrees when we were there so the top bedrooms were unbearably hot but i shouldnt think this is normally a problem. Great communication with the owner all the way through. Well stocked house in terms of cooking pots/pans and spices/salt/pepper etc.. really nice outdoor spaces . ##### Mischa B. Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Norm D., Rochester, Minnesota, USA 6 Aug 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Lovely setting We stayed with family at this lovely property to attend our son's wedding. It was perfect for our needs. The covered outside seating areas meant we were able to enjoy the beautiful gardens in all weathers. The kitchen/dining area was a favorite spot and the well-equipped kitchen enabled us to prepare favorite meals. Bedrooms were very comfortable and we really enjoyed the peace and quiet of the location. Sarah and Dieter were wonderful hosts and very flexible. Sarah even ensured that we had basic provisions when we arrived. We highly recommend this property. ##### Norm D. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Norbert K., Northwood 15 Sept 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful and relaxing visit in a beautiful part of England A wonderful, tranquil setting with lovely gardens and a very good layout of rooms and bathrooms. Superbly equipped kitchen and living areas. So good not to be over-looked by the nearby properties which (to be honest) you couldn't really see anyway. Very close to Guildford and other "big-town" amenities and yet felt as out in the country as if you were up in the lakes. ##### Norbert K.
