We had a really nice short break at Tennis Court Cottage. Before we arrived, the communication was excellent and the property exceeded expectations on every dimension. The property is brilliant and with age ranges from 11 to 68 everyone found something to do, the tennis court was a great hit. The nearby village is lovely. We have been travelling around the country this Summer with family from Australia staying with us and without exception, everyone mentioned this property first when I asked them about highlights of our holiday. What more can I say ... the host and the property are just lovely !

Seven of us stayed for a weekend family gathering. Plenty of outside space and good location for village. Very good kitchen, we cooked supper on arrival and breakfasts. Hosts very helpful and friendly. Weather was amazing for October so we were out and about most of the time.
