Just perfect
Pros:

Stunning place, I loved the decor, the food, the staff were amazing, Andrea was particularly welcoming and ensured we had everything we needed. The accommodation was just beautiful, comfortable and quirky. We will be back. We celebrated our wedding anniversary here. There is a large garden with plenty of seating, play area for children and private dining huts. All the staff are very friendly.

Cons:

We loved everything

Great place to visit, eat and stay.
Pros:

The room was beautiful, well furnished, comfortable and had peaceful nights sleep.

Nothing was too much trouble for the staff at the potting shed, they came to the room to see if we needed anything before leaving for the night.

The food in the restaurant was amazing, my partner and I both had freshly made stone baked pizzas, again the staff at the restaurant were friendly and welcoming.

Cons:

Couldn't fault the potting shed, staff were amazing the whole site was clean and maintained to a high level.

Pros:

The rooms are on the other side of the garden from the pub so we found them very quiet. Much more comfortable and quirky than expected. Large corner sofa in the room and an excellent shower. The feel of the rooms is Hobbit House!

Cons:

It's not obvious where to check in as there is no reception area. I had to ask a server in the dining room and was directed to the manager who came over to greet me.

Pros:

It was very cosy and clean, somewhere to relax and enjoy a break

Cons:

We turned the radiator off before we went to sleep and as we were next to the boiler room it made an annoying sound it also made the noise as it came back on in the morning which was a little annoying
