A beautiful house and setting!
Really wonderful house that worked perfectly for our group trip, in a wonderful location and beautiful setting. Lots of gorgeous spaces where we could relax - we especially loved the patio area. The owner was incredibly helpful with the information we needed to make our stay enjoyable. Lots to do including walking distance to a pub. We traveled with quite a few children and they also really loved the property - especially the swimming pool!

Cannot have asked for more
A large beautiful property in a lovely part of Surrey. All facilities we needed were on hand. A huge swimming pool was great for all and we made great use of it. The tennis court, and external sitting were lovely features. The bedrooms, bathrooms and living areas all well appointed and comfortable. The kitchen facilities all of high quality with a generous number of basic cooking essentials. One lovely addition was a basket of gifts which we all enjoyed, chocolates, biscuits, cereal etc. Our hostess made sure we had every thing we needed. Cannot have asked for more. In addition the weather was in our favour :)
