Great property for a bit of family reconnection after a busy few months. Travelling with 16yr olds is always a worry that they will be bored but we had such fun - the games room/bar in the garden was great, lots of darts and air hockey matches. Even a power cut didn’t stop our fun we played scrabble by candlelight! We explored the local area - we really needed a longer stay but we definitely made the most of it. The property is beautiful, we loved it. The owner was so lovely too :)
The Hemmel is een fantastisch uitgerust en erg sfeervol cottage. Perfect gelegen tussen de Cotswolds, Oxford en Chiltern Hills. Ideale plek voor een mooie vakantie of lang weekend weg.
