    جلسنا ليلتين في مزرعة “Feather Down Sunninglye Farm” وكانت تجربة رائعة. المكان هادئ وجميل ومليء بالطبيعة. فيه خراف وخيول ودجاج. جمعنا الحطب من الحقل واستخدمناه في الطبخ على النار والفرن الخشبي. في إحدى الليالي شغلوا فرن البيتزا وسوّينا بيتزا بأنفسنا وكانت لذيذة جداً. الأطفال استمتعوا كثيراً بوقت الحيوانات الساعة 10 صباحاً واستكشاف المزرعة. زرنا أيضاً حقل فيه ماء وركبنا قارب صغير وشاهدنا الأسماك. ما فيه كهرباء ولا دفايات، بس هذا الشيء خلّى التجربة مميزة أكثر. كل شيء كان بسيط وهادئ ويقربك من الطبيعة.

    We had the most fabulous time at Sunninglye Farm - our two boys just loved the freedom and getting stuck into the activities such as animal feeding and raft building and we loved the well equipped accommodation and beautiful scenery. Gill was a wonderful host, we couldn’t have asked for more and hope to return soon.

    We enjoyed Sunninglye so much we returned this year and it was just as great.||Fantastic experience and location. This year we booked the brunch and barbecue box. My favourite was the brunch followed by Raft Building. ||We had Toddlers, Teenagers, 20s, 30s, 50s and dogs. Thirteen of us and 3 dogs all had a fabulous experience. ||Thank you to Jo and Jill. Jo you must continue with the homemade jam. ||Hoping to return soon.

    5 families stayed here and we had the best time! Jill was so helpful. Kids (and adults) loved the animals. Accommodation is amazing. Quick trip to Bewl Water but apart from that, we were perfectly happy to stay on site. Would highly recommend.

    We love Sunninglye Farm and have been every year for 3/4 years with friends. |It’s so peaceful and even though we live only half a hour away it feels like stepping into another world - one we don’t want to leave!|Jill goes above and beyond to make sure everyone is happy. |On the latest trip the kids loved bottle feeding the orphaned lambs she has rescued, my son is in love with Nutmeg the horse and everyone had so much fun messing about in boats on the small lake, and feeding the fish.|Sunninglye gives you the gift of time to spend with family and friends in an idyllic locations. It’s a special place and we will be back!

    The cottage is very modern has everything, fully equipped kitchen. The balkony faces the hedge that blocks the view. It gets very hot in the room even when it is nice and breezy outside.
