Award-Winning 5 Star Luxury Private Retreat - Hot Tub, Tennis, Fishing, Horses

Evening hot tub a definite bonus. Would highly recommend. Our host, Lisa, was great - very attentive & had excellent recommendations for local sights & things to do. We'll book again.

Dream Cottage
Beautifully furnished cottage with stunning views. So relaxing and the perfect place to unwind and spend quality time with friends and family. Hot tub set in lovely completely private gardens that are well kept. The hosts are very hospitable and friendly, adding lots of small touches which makes The Retreat so special. Our party was made up of myself and three older children aged 16 to 19 and we all thought it was the nicest place we've stayed in.

Perfect family retreat
Communication with host prior to arrival was so easy. We managed to get an early check in and we were in love with the property Instantly. Beautiful location and the property was immaculate. We had some issues lighting the fire for the hot tub but Jamie, bless him was on hand and was a diamond. Watching the stars whilst in the hot tub was the type of relaxation we were needing. The beds were so comfortable and our 2 year old loved all the toys and running about (not to mention watching the Deer from the window). Our only gripe was that the robes weren’t for the larger variety of person… Regardless of that, we will definitely be back!

Gorgeous
If it’s an immaculately clean cottage that is both cosy and spacious that you’re after then look no further. We stayed 3 nights and could of happily stayed for a week. The grounds are spectacular as is the scenery and the hot tub just completes the outdoors. The decor and ambiance indoors is beautiful. My friends and I were looking for a nice rural cottage to get away from the hustle bustle of everyday life and “The Retreat” allowed us to do just that. Many thanks to the owners, we will definitely be returning next November 😉
