Why they chose this property
We work hard to ensure that our self-catering properties create a holiday environment that maximises the enjoyment of both adults and children. To call the garden and grounds an adventure playground is perhaps an over-statement, but there is much to stimulate and provide hours of pleasure for all. This allows everyone to relax on the terrace or poolside, knowing that they don't have to continually think of what to do next. There is much of interest in the area and those without the constraints of school timetables can enjoy the location with all its peace and tranquillity.
What makes this property unique
Rural location but not too far from civilisation! Sunken trampoline so safe for all ages. Games' rooms and boules pitch. Lovely shared swimming pool and superb gardens. The cottages are tidy and well kept and are all fully equipped. Plus free wifi.
