Beautifull cottage with absolutely everything we could have wished for. My Wife & I went with our 5 year old daughter & stayed for 3 nights but we wished it was a fortnight!! Lots to do & see in nearby locations & a trampoline & a swing in the courtyard which was a huge hit with our daughter...!! We're sure to book again...! |

We had a lovely weekend here , visiting Raf Fairford for Riat, accommodation excellent. Very clean and comfortable accommodation. The only downside was no proper oven only microwave/ oven which I am useless with. Lovely location , stunning views . |
