Exceeded expectations
We visited with our boys aged 8 & 10 for a long sunny weekend and wished it was for longer! We spent lots of time on both the tennis court and in the beautiful swimming pool. The location was ideal for visiting the surrounding area and we found great places to cycle and kayak nearby. The coach house had everything we needed. The shared access to the tennis court and pool was a non-issue (should that be a concern) and it was wonderful to stay somewhere with such beautiful gardens.
