A rest

Well it was a change, visits to Bletchley, London and various walks. Great area for walking, easy to stay off the roads. Also meant we felt we earned our meal at The Pilgrim, which was fabulous. Night times were very quiet so good nights sleep

Perfect!

Only stayed two nights as in the area for an event but the property and village were lovely. Didn’t expect to need to use the log burner in July but that’s the British summer for you and it was such a fab addition!

Cosy barn conversion set in lovely village

The property is attached to the owners place Pete and Rachel, with plenty of room for parking. We met Pete on arrival and he gave us a useful low down on the facilities and places to visit whilst on our stay. The property is well equipped and tastefully furnished. All in all we would highly recommend.

Perfect Bolthole

We wanted to see some different Ovations in the area and this was the perfect bolthole. The property is furnished to a very high standard and the hosts were very welcoming.. Had amazon prime and Netflix on tv which was a nice bonus. Definitely going to revisit again when we go to Bletchley Park.

Interesting, quirky but very good

Lovely little property, well furnished and equipped and very comfortable, just right for 2 people. Owner friendly and informative about the area. There is a lovely local pub across the road, wood burning stove giving a cozy atmosphere. The staff are very friendly. The menu is unusual but having eaten there twice can thoroughly recommend it.

Great break

As a returning guest, the cottage was as lovely as last time. Warm and welcoming, with friendly but unobtrusive hosts and a mad dog who will chase a ball for ever! Sofa bed is comfy and easy to operate. Could probably do with a brighter lamp in the lounge when the main light is off.

Lovely country retreat

Stayed at the stables for two nights and had a great time. The cottage has been tastefully converted to a high standard whilst retaining much of the original features. Very cosy in the evenings with the wood stove flickering away. The cottage overlooked rolling fields so a lovely peaceful setting Rachel was great, kept me fully updated with checking in arrangements and other relevant information. Highly recommend..
