    Loved the experience so much. Just me, my husband and dog. Marie was so welcoming too. It was just the ticket to unplug from modern day stressors. Beautiful sunsets in Walnut Tree, hot tub was sensational. So refreshing to be so close to nature. A very healing experience.

    We had a pleasant stay at the farm. We were well Looked after and we had everything we needed. We did a walk through the fields to a nearby pub. About a mile/ 55 mins walk. We used the hot tub, well the kids did. We made a beef stew using the camp fire. And hired a stone pizza oven and the pizza came out really tasty. Didn’t have a chance to use the bbq as the weather was not great. The weather is a bit cold in April staying in the farm. The use of wood fire burner took a bit time to master. After fire light and kindlings, and use the dryer block of wood first and then the normal one. A couple of nights during our stay were quite storming therefore it was quite noisy in the tents. It’s worth it to get a couple ear plugs. Staying in the tents can be quite cold. Pantry has electrical charging point you can charge your power bank. Honesty shop - you can some essential there. Lambing took place during our stay and kids love to hold the lambs.
