"It's like a slice of hidden paradise. So private and secluded, we felt like lord and lady of the manor. Hardys Monument at sunset with a glass of wine is fabulous"

"What an amazing place. we were fortunate enough to see deer, badgers and lots of wonderful local wildlife. We had some amazing local walks also. With so much to do we needed more time. We'll be back next year to explore this idyllic location further. Thank you."
