- "What a gem. Secure entry and exit gates. Beautiful garden and pastures. Friendly welcome and briefing. Room decorated to very high standards including walk in wardrobe. Breakfast was perfectly done. Delicious food. Orders taken the day before. Natalie and Richard are perfect hosts. We’ll be back for sure. Exceptional value for money." - "The property was easy to find, Natalie ( the host) having provided clear directions. She and her husband were the epitome of friendliness: sociable, happy to help and great fun! They even drove us into Henley twice and didn't want any payment. There is also an offer available to all guests for small items of clothing to be laundered for no charge - that's remarkably generous. The breakfasts were delicious, plentiful and served in a beautiful room in their house."

Breakfast was excellent." - "Dinner was excelkent Rooms were great" - "We had The Lacey attic room which is not at all suitable for persons of our age(82/75). The bed had two step boards round it which were very difficult to negotiate and no space at the end of the bed to use to exit for the bathroom. The only way to exit was to crawl over the bottom of the bed. Maintenance is also required on the 2 squeaky doors within this room.
