Highly suggest!" - "Gorgeous, unique experience in a city I’ve visited dozens of time. The grounds and gardens (particularly the Irish sky garden) are out of this world.

- "Love this place." - "All our very well travelled friends and my wife and I felt immediately at home in this warm, comfortable, spacious farmhouse. We loved the artwork, books, quirky corners filled with individual touches. The grounds are a special delight with wonderful walks along the river, and sculptures surprising us round every corner. Apart from the cows mooing in the next door field, and a brief visit from a deer, the only sounds are birdsong and the wind in the trees. This is a very happy family home. We all loved it and found it very hard to leave such a special place."
