Wonderful location, great hosts!

From start to finish this stay was lovely. We were met by our lovely hosts on arrival and shown around the property. In a wonderful location, just outside Corsham and with easy access to Lacock, Devizes, Melksham amongst many other wonderful sites. The proximity to the pub was amazing and definitely worth visiting, Vegan or otherwise. The property gave us everything we needed. Enhanced by visits from muntjack deer in the paddock and a crisp, frosty sunrise,... we absolutely loved it. Thank you both 💓
