80 birthday celebration

The property excelled the written description. We were a group of 11 there was masses of house space. The garden was huge for kids to play in. The river at bottom of garden was a delight and well used for wild swimming and use of the included paddle board and kayaks.Even safety jackets provided. All amazing.
