A Beautiful Retreat

Sonny001 Islington, London, UK
Review Submitted: August 2, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
The house was exactly as described and far exceeded our expectations. We were very comfortable in the accomodations and the children enjoyed their stay immensely. The gardens are fabulous and clean and on a clear evening the starlit nights are a wonder. The owner, Sarah was extremely helpful. She recommended places to visit or shop and even gave us contact numbers in case their were any problems. The shops which are a few minutes away by car stock everything that you could possibly need. We would not hesitate in returning and would recommend to anyone who lives in the city who are in search of peace and tranquility.

Best Holiday Ever!

janinelast Ipswich, Suffolk/United Kingdom
Review Submitted: June 8, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
This was our first holiday away in a villa with all the family and it was an amazing experience.
The farmhouse is like something off a postcard.
Would highly recommend!
We will be doing it again soon.
