What some previous guests have had to say...

The Grounds Are Amazing!
“Beautiful home and amazing grounds. The home is just beautiful and in winter with the fireplace and heated flooring made for a special evening of catching up with old friends. There really wasn't anything we wanted that wasn't available. The grounds are amazing and we're looking forward to booking another weekend in summer to enjoy the outdoors and the other activities the property offers. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home.”

The Kitchen is a Dream…
“Stunning property to get away from it all We booked for a Christmas in July for 8 friends and it was perfect. The kitchen is a dream to cook in. The house was wonderfully warm, as was the spa and all rooms. Beautiful. Thankyou.”

A Perfect Place For Relaxing.
“We had an excellent stay at the Lakehouse. The property is extremely picturesque with its own lake and huge yard. The house itself is very comfortable with a fireplace, large bedrooms, and a massive spa. The hosts were also very thoughtful--they had the fireplace going when we got in. A perfect place for a relaxing weekend. Beware, you will not want to return to the city though!”

We Will Definitely be Returning
“We received a very friendly welcome and the accommodation was lovely, just as described. Everything was clean and the burning fire very much appreciated! We all felt very comfortable in our surroundings and we will definitely be returning”

Would Recommend To Everyone!
“The Lakehouse and grounds are absolutely stunning and well looked after. We really made the most of the log fire, it made us feel like we were back in England! Thank you so much for having us, we would recommend to everyone!!”
