The perfect family trip
I cannot say enough amazing things about our wonderful trip to The Courtyard last week. We had the BEST time! I booked this trip for our annual family Easter trip. It was myself, husband and step daughter (5yo), my parents, my sister and BIL and family dogs. The property was absolutely perfect for our needs. On arrival and the miserable weather, Sally was there to welcome us to her beautiful home. The property was absolutely spotless and the most lovely welcome gifts of homemade cake and bread, Prosecco and crisps made a fabulous welcome. For a self catering property, it was so well equipped with essentials that we didn’t expect. The coffee machine and pods were the ultimate morning treat! Sally’s garden is just out of this world, so well manicured yet welcoming for humans and dogs at the same time. We were so lucky to be able to enjoy the views, pool and tennis court/table tennis during our stay, mainly for our Family Easter Olympics! Sally and family were so welcoming and on hand to answer any questions on the lead up to our stay, yet made the property perfectly private whilst we were there. We are already planning our return trip to such a beautiful part of the country. Thank you again Sally and we really hope to meet you again soon!

Lovely family holiday
The property was absolutely lovely. It was comfortable and well maintained for 8 adults and 2 infants. We loved our days playing tennis and swimming. Sally is an excellent host and checked we had all we needed. The house is surprisingly private and we felt like we had it all to ourselves. We also loved the fresh raspberries from the garden. It was a fantastic week.

Beautiful property
We had a lovely holiday at this property. The gardens are beautiful. The children spent most of their time in the pool, which was kept at a lovely temperature the children loved it. The accommodation was comfortable and spacious. We loved our holiday and would love to go back again.
