Ms Trew, Sudbury, September 2011
Staying on a working farm, the views were spectacular. No problems being so close to a camp site.
Mr Darcy, Bishop's Stortford, September 2011
The setting was quiet and picturesque and very near local attractions. The cottage was homely and very reasonable for accommodating up to eight people. The landlords were very helpful and hospitable. I would definitely come again.
