Nov 2007 Daniel party Australia (mostly) Awesome weekend, great company, comfortable accommodation, what more is there in life? Thanks!!
Oct 2007 Goldring family Kent Excellent - just what we wanted... plus added extras of Dora & trampoline! An excellent stock of everything here - a great base for some beautiful walks. Thanks.
Sep 2007 Combe/Preston group Suffolk and Florida Excellent accommodation that we have all enjoyed. The Cotswold villages were better than we expected and all in all a great break.
Sep 2007 Stewart family Melbourne The perfect set-up for our family, much better than we had expected. Something for everyone, kids and adults. Runs and walks, cream teas and pub lunches, then TV and board games, trampolines and rabbits.
Sep 2007 Cooper family Devon We booked to accommodate the family (2 sons, 2 daughters-in-law, 3 grandchildren) for a family wedding with the reception at Wyck Hill House. It proved a perfect base both for attending the reception and for a relatively rare whole family get together. The younger generation have to work but we stayed on a few days enjoying the country around, including the Donnington Brewery which is run by a distant cousin. The cottage is excellently appointed and roomy - it absorbed nine of us without difficulty. Thank you.
Aug 2007 Klobucher family Massachusetts We had a lovely time! It was great to have all the equipment, toys and fenced in yard for the 2yr old. The older kids loved it here too. Well equipped kitchen, helpful & accommodating hosts, loads of maps and brochures and fantastic local walks. Hope to come again! Thanks! The garden and Dora very popular too! Such beautiful scenery!
