Family Get together
We weren't familiar with the area but chose the property for size and facilities. The property was really warm, comfortable, cosy and well equipped. Plenty of kitchen equipment for us to cook for 19. The grounds were lovely. A good base for a day out in the lakes too. Highly recommended!

Wow, this is an unbelievable find
Wow, where to start here? This property is AMAZING! We had a team building retreat over two days here and not a single person (out of 20) had anything negative to say. The property is clean, well decorated, and HUGE. We managed to cook several meals for 20 people in the kitchen so it is doable. The surrounding grounds are breathtaking and safe to explore, plenty of parking, and quiet. Thank you so much, it was incredible.
