We had to postpone our arrival for a day because our plane was delayed overnight in London. It was an inauspicious start to our holiday, but Gudrun couldn't have been more helpful in rescheduling our booking and making us welcome. Everything about our stay was delightful. The room was of a high standard, the gardens and farm are beautiful and the food was very good. Highly recommended.
