Fantastic house in the middle of no where, no distractions just peace.
Fantastic house in the middle of no where, no distractions just peace. We made full use of the facilities in the house and the barn with hot tub, bar and pool table kept all entertained for hours. Some lovely little touches too, pick and mix for the kids, a very welcomed bottle of milk after a disastrous journey and a bottle of fizz to enjoy. Kids have voted we will be back!

The Moat House is a lovely place to stay.
The Moat House is a lovely place to stay. The house is lovely and very spacious. Hot tub in the barn is a great extra. The house is equipped with everything you need, could do with some drawers in the twin room. Beds were comfortable, we found the sofas not the comfiest, they look lovely but not really great for lounging around. Having said that these were little things but our time at The Most House was fantastic. Definitely need a car if you’re visiting as it’s in the middle of nowhere but very quiet and relaxing. We loved it!!!
