Beautiful rural retreat
Warmly greeted by one of the two hosts, upon our arrival by car on a cold late January day. Whereupon, basic ‘housekeeping’ details were explained. Comprehensively detailed ring-binder covered everything extensively, including: local walks, shopping delivery details, restaurants and take-away details and how to use the wood burner, with first basket of logs provided. Lovely swimming pool and sauna facilities! Nuthatch was a beautifully presented, warm and clean, very cosy cottage with a well equipped kitchen and very hot water, constantly on tap. The bathroom was spotless with a wonderful over-the-bath shower that would more than match any power-shower for pressure! Nuthatch offers ideal accommodation for two: we loved it, and simply cannot wait to book our next stay! If you’re looking for a remote, rural location to get away from it all, you will struggle to find anything to rival Three Gates Farm! The owners clearly take pride in the level of hospitality that they provide! Thank you so much, to our hosts; Jonathan and Lynn! J&S x

1 Woche schöner Urlaub
Wir haben im Oktober einen schönen Urlaub in dem cottage bei Jonathan und Lynn verbracht. Das cottage Nuthatch ist für 2 Personen ausreichend groß, gut eingerichtet und sauber. Wir haben den Pool und die Sauna jeden Abend genutzt - das hat zusätzlich zur Erholung beigetragen. Personen, die Ruhe und Erholung suchen, können wir diese Unterkunft sehr empfehlen.
