Nice location

We had one criteria for our weekend away: Fireplace. Didn't disappoint on that count. The beautiful gardens and house were a bonus :)

I agree log fires are the best at time of the year! It was lovely to see you.

Pleasant with gorgeous garden walks

It was most enjoyable. The only quibble was that some of the kitchen utensils weren't the best, making it difficult to prepare vegetables!

Love this place, so rewinding and switching off from busy scenery to such beautifully scenery from our cottage window and walking through such beautiful garden. We rode our mountains bikes close-by- A W E S O M E

Lovely stay at a beautiful cottage, surrounded by gorgeous gardens. Perfect escape from the city and the pool was a very lovely and cared for bonus.

A Perfect Tonic

Summer or Winter Flaxmere is the perfect place to unwind and leave the troubles of your particular world at the gate. A warm welcome from Penny, a log fire and acres of beautiful gardens to wander though. Add good friends, great food and a bottle or two of your favourite wine and you have the perfect weekend. Truly, a tranquil oasis for the soul. Thank you Penny, we will be back again soon.
