We stayed here for a large family gathering and it was the perfect setting for it. It's large enough and spread out enough for people to have their own space when they want some downtime, and the communal areas are fantastic for spending time together. The gardens are so special, full of hidden treasures. We had catch-ups in the sauna, long dinners around the big kitchen table and an epic boules tournament. The river walk close to the house is just beautiful. We had a couple of unexpected situations arise, and Sarah and David were very accommodating. In other words, we can't recommend this house highly enough!
