Previous visitors' comments about Merman Farm:
Fantastic property and location, very clean and well appointed. Everything you could possibly need and the owners were extremely helpful. Would definitely recommend to others and visit again ourselves in the future.
Ms Carlo, Bury, December 2010
The cottage was lovely and warm at all times. The paddock to walk the dogs was ideal.
Mr & Mrs Shearer, Liverpool, October 2010
Tideswell is a very peaceful place and Merman Farm made an ideal base from which to explore the surrounding area. Very high standards and welcoming hosts.
Mr & Mrs Lees, South Croydon, June 2010
The space and layout of the house was good for a large group of mixed ages. The large paddock was good for power kiting and playing ball games.
