Fabulous farmhouse, private walled gardens with hot tub, plenty of outdoor furniture, bar, bbqs. Great for the dogs - close to the forest for walks. Lovely big kitchen accommodated 9 of us for Sunday dinner. Super comfy beds. Highly recommended.

We booked a little weekend away to celebrate our best-friend getting married in the upcoming months. The place was absolutely stunning, so clean and tidy. There was so much room, everything was just perfect. Lovely sitting area for people to relax in and lounge about. Was a lovely atmosphere from the surroundings. A few shops/takeaways close by.Read more Mark (the owner) came and met us as we started to arrive and was so lovely and helpful. He gave us a tour of the property and showed us how to get the hot tub working. Whenever we had any questions whilst we were there, we were able to just send a message and hed reply and pop over. Mark was really helpful and a great host, and even left us a few goodies to get us started. We were so happy with our whole experience, weve decided that well be coming back next year! Thank-you again, Mark! We truly had an incredible time. Hide

Middle Farmhouse is a wonderful place to stay! It feels so much more spacious than it looks in the photos. We had a family of 12 plus the dog and we had plenty of room to gather or stay out of each others way. This included a last-minute additional guest which was no problem at all, and we were so grateful for this. We went to celebrate my Mum's 75Read moreth birthday so we had a multi-generational group (ages 2 -75) and it was the perfect place for us all. There's so much to do nearby for adults and kids - and lots of lovely walking spots. The hot tub was fabulous and Mark and Michelle provided us with a welcome basket which was a lovely touch. We would love to come back again! Hide
