Great for a large group

A group of my family numbering 12 adults 7 children and 2 dogs spent a long weekend celebrating a 76th birthday, sharing two properties, Mews Hill and Criddlestyle Cottage. We all had a fantastic time and the facilitites were all exactly as described and made for a brilliant time together. Thanks!
