Slow living
Just what we wanted. Slow days, sunshine and no distractions. Time to do word puzzles, paint pictures, press flowers, cook pancakes and talk. I enjoyed these precious few days with my three kids. And the delightful setting made it all the more special. Thanks to Kate and Simon for sharing your beautiful property with us. The dogs made quite an impression on the kids too!

Cute cosy cottage
Overall we had a great stay, great communication with the host Kate. My only issue was the doors not locking, with the door handles being at toddler height, my 2 yr old was able to get outside whenever he wanted.

As a Family we needed a quite getaway and this was the perfect location for peace and zen
Kind and friendly welcoming and easy communication with the owner Kate . Accommodation was clean and cosy in such magnificent peaceful country surroundings Extensive history of the historical property was given and you were instantly made to feel right at home. To the birds upon waking to the wisoer through the trees at night this was just what us busy city people needed to reboot and recharge for the nrw year ahead. We have already planned our next weekend stay very soon.

Gorgeous stay gor family with dog
We had such a lovely tine on this property with our dog. Fully fenced little cottage where our dog was happy to remain while we went out to The Springs Hotel for a lovely meal - just 10 minutes down the road. ... but able to take her for walks down to the lake for a swim. Our dog thought she was in heaven and we absolutely loved the cottage too. Great communication from Kate who managed our stay. We just loved the entire experience! Thanks Kate
