Immaculately presented house in good location.
House is an interesting conversion in a historical part of Thames. We enjoyed local walks as well as exploring further. Chris is a great host who made us feel very welcome.

Wonderful place and wonderful stay.
Chris was an excellent host and the property was exceptionally tidy, modern and well catered for. Our two girls had a great time walking with Dingo and Chris and it was lovely of him to offer. We would recommend this place to anyone and will absolutely be returning! Thanks again and we will be back :-)
