Village Life - Country Living!

By a stream with ducks and a wooden bridge you will find our delightful cottages, (sleep from 2 to 10) stable/barn cottage and farmhouse.
The Nest and The Studio, are both suitable for 2 people, whereas the larger Brook House cottages lend themselves to family get- to- gethers, or more roomy family accommodation. See our website for virtual tour of these cottages.
Short breaks available except school holidays.

Good local inn nearby. Ideal for all ages, playing in stream,or taking country walks spotting deer and red squirrels and birdwatching for buzzards and osprey.  Visit our new arrivals in Spring. Ducklings and lambsand calves, feed the ducks that waddle in and out of the farmyard and swim up and down on the stream, collect duck eggs in the morning, after letting the ducks out of their shed.A real "Old MacDonald's Farm". Alternatively relax by a lovely log fire or by the stream and woodland.

Children enjoy freedom to run around safely, playing hide and seek in the small wood across from the cottage, playing pooh sticks from the bridge, building a dam in the stream or fishing for minnows. The village green is ideal for playing football or cricket with the village children who are a nice bunch and enjoy meeting new children.
