This is the second time we have stayed at Sophie's for a family gathering. It is a great house with a large open plan room downstairs for socialising and a small garden (complete with tortoise which the kids loved!). It is well equipped for a family stay. There are quite a few stairs to the bedrooms if you have mobility problems. Recommend it as a family friendly place to stay but also as a spacious quiet place to stay for those without kids! :-)
