David
We very much enjoyed our stay in Arden's Court Farmhouse, and as a large party (11 at one point) we particularly enjoyed the kitchen, which both supported the preparation of meals for a big group and also allowed us all to sit at the same table. Our communal meals were definitely a highlight. We found the bedrooms roomy and comfortable and also theRead morere was plenty of space to relax in the sitting rooms. The road outside can get a little bit busy but this did not affect things for us. Hide
Alison
The cottage was lovely and very homely. Was celebrating a 90th Birthday and the cottage accommodated a party of 10 very comfortably.
