About Us

Stay a while: Love it Forever 

A calm, considerately hosted, award winning , countryside break, with space to reconnect without effort

Take a look

When your busy life seems to be taking over and you need to press pause.

You will discover that peace, where you can relax and find yourself again. Being surrounded by nature will nurture that feeling of stepping away from your everyday commitments and truly resting.

Alpacas, wallabies and a private fishing lake

The wandering alpacas will show you when to sit down and absorb the warmth of the sun, they may well join you. The kingfishers will delight you with their fleeting turquoise presence over the lake. Calm will gently wash over you, yet you won't feel isolated. Your shoulders will relax even before you've unpacked, safe in the knowledge you are in good hands and everything has been thought of so you don't have to.

Priceless

Being able to talk to each other without distractions

Most Guests say...the photos don't do it justice

Whilst photos will suggest the natural tranquility on offer, it's not until you arrive you will actually feel it. The luxury of time and space together stargazing instead of screen time, where evenings end around the fire pit with the moon reflecting in the lake, not the blue light from devices.

Frequently asked questions

Is the site dog friendly?

We have a dog. However, the free range alpacas are terrified of dogs and will run away. Dogs see alpacas as long legged sheep or deer and so they are unsettled and will probably bark or chase them. So our calm and quiet site would become somewhat chaotic and noisy.  Whilst we love them the alpacas don't.
