WarrenFamily with young children - Avg. price/night: £85.749.6Scored 9.6ExceptionalRated exceptional· 206 reviewsThe location is fantastic! It feels like you're one with nature and far from the rat race. Zebras came grazing right up to the fence. But it is also a quick and easy drive into the city. Everything about Equestre is exceptional - comfortable, clean, safe, beautiful. I would definitely stay there again if I go that way in future.KrafttSolo traveller
