What a well thought out little hut.

Lots of beautiful touches. In a good location for exploring the local area by car. It was a little more overlooked than expected with a large house with views across the field to the deck and seating area. No log burner kit or information about heating provided despite the chillier mornings arriving. Be aware that there is also some noise from being along the flight path for Bristol Airport.

We had a lovely few nights stay under the oak tree, it was so inviting and the crisps, wine and chocolate was an added bonus, thank you very much.

The communication was perfect. We enjoyed waking up to the rabbits and squirrels playing in the front and the cows behind and the bed and pillows were sooooo comfy. We would highly recommend. Just check food times with the local pubs, we are from Kent so expected food later but we soon got used to it
