Garden Area
Outside there is a private garden area overlooking the orchard with your own hot tub, a table and chairs for al-fresco dining and a BBQ. The garden is planted with a pretty herbaceous border and includes a gorgeous dark purple Buddleia which swarms with butterflies in the summer. Just outside the garden but with some branches hanging over is an ancient mulberry tree whose delicious fruits are ready in late summer. Then a few steps takes you into the Orchard where there are apples, cherries, pears, plums, walnuts, and a young Quince so there are fruit treats ready from July onwards with the final apples maturing as late as November!
Tranquillity
If you are rather looking forward to some peace and quiet, then this tranquil rural spot fits the bill.
Dog friendly!

You are welcome to bring your dog/s (at an extra charge of £20 per dog per stay). Your large garden is fenced and there are plenty of walks straight from your front door (and a hose pipe for washing them down if needed!). We provide a dog hamper with essentials like towels and a blanket (if required, a dog bed is available). Please be aware however, that we have resident chickens, ducks, geese, dogs, and cows. Therefore, dogs do need to be well-behaved and kept under control at all times. A pet-sitting service is available by prior arrangement in the village.
