Our experience with vrbo
Even thought our stay was work related, we were filming on the location with tight schedules, this place still made our stay absolutely wonderful! The area, the gardens around the house are stunning and so peaceful! Just outside the farm, a great opportunity to watch the sunset! Supermarkets, small shops, stations just a few minutes away! Easy and accessible! Sam, our host was extremely kind, helpful and available at any time of need! In addition, the best sleeps we got in a while 🙏 we’re super grateful we got to film in this amazing location!!

The cottage is stunning inside and out. Wonderful gardens and a lovely country location. 5mins into Baldock and 3mins into Ashwell. Sam was a perfect host. Will look to stay here again for the next family visit.

Impeccable country home
The Domek is a lovely, fresh barn conversion. Impeccably decorated, light and airy. The house is spotless and was well equipped making our short stay a complete pleasure. The gardens are spectacular. A real treasure.
