Stayed in rose cottage with some friends for a weekend. Very child friendly and accomodating. We had a fantastic experience even though the weather was diabolical!

Fabulous place to stay for all ages. We loved the pool and games barn. Feeding the animals was also a great experience. The Manor house was superb. Very spacious, scrupulously clean, kitchen well equipped, beds very comfortable and super showers. We had a wonderful week staying here.

Fantastic stay. Beautiful setting, facilities ideal for our group of two families with three under four. Pool, soft play, games room and woodland walk all wonderful. Ruth was great with the children whilst we fed the animals. A really warm welcome from Andy and Ruth, they went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. Great proximity to amenities in Bude and surf beaches. Highly recommended!!
