A wonderful few days with Renate and John making us feel very welcome. Nothing was too much trouble and our girls were right at home exploring the fruit garden, directing the geese and ducks in and out of the pond and making good use of the beautiful swimming pool. Can’t wait for our next visit. Thank you Renate and John.

Heather

We had a wonderful stay at Renate and John’s beautiful cottage! The pictures don’t do the place enough justice! When the sun was shining and we were sat by the pool I felt like we could have been in the South of France! We had the most relaxing and peaceful stay and Renate and John were so friendly and helpful!

Polly

Such a lovely getaway with such lovely hosts! Both were incredibly hospitable and friendly. We were welcomed warmly with flowers, homemade jam and fresh eggs. The ground, pond and all the animals were so lovely to be around - our favourites were the ducks! Thanks so much for making our wedding weekend so memorable.

What a perfect stay we had at the farm. Renate & John have made a lovely warm people. Pond cottage is beautiful. The location so peaceful, with lovely views of green in every direction. The wood-burner was made ready to light, also fresh eggs & homemade jam were waiting for us inside.
