I very much enjoyed my stay, beds were comfortable, dogs made themselves at home, the views were to die for and the food was incredible! One thing that was exceptional was the curry!! They definitely lived up to all the amazing reviews, and safe to say after travelling to India myself (as do they every year) their love for Indian food was definitely what made the place so special! Best curry I’ve ever eaten!
Will definitely return for another visit, as there is a lot more exploring to be done!

A few friends and I stayed here for a long weekend as we were attending a wedding nearby. We had a fantastic stay, much of it due to Janet and Ray's hospitality which was impeccable. We all enjoyed Ray's tales as well as his encyclopaedic knowledge of the area, it's history and the community. I'm all really looking forward to visiting again for our promised 'hysterical' tour and a spot of clay pigeon shooting.

Nice country hotel, a little of the old world style. But very welcoming. Rooms are large. Owners are friendly. It has everything you need without modern day faff. Good sized car park. We were able to park our bikes under the glass canopy/awning, directly under our window. The room was a good size and comfortable. My only grumble was the shower was a little to small for me. Meals where nice and plentiful. Very reasonably. Definitely will use again. Lovely views and easily accessible.
