We spent 3 days here for a team retreat. Katie and Toby were great hosts and quick to respond to all of our queries. The house and grounds were great, Bexley itself was easy to get to from central London and plenty of places to eat.
Perfect place to spend the festive days of Xmas. Big enough for all nine of us to be together but also to have our own space for sleeping.
Kitchen well equipped to enable festive cooking.
House with lots of character & charm. Due to the rainy weather we stayed indoors and location ideal for that.
