    Such a comfortable and relaxing place, a converted rural building in the grounds of Wraxall Farm. The bedroom is a feast for the eyes. Plenty of hot water in the elegant bathroom fitted with both shower and large, luxurious bath tub. Excellent...

    Stunning location, Judy the host is a lovely lady and makes great breakfast! Perfect little spot for us and our 2 CKC spaniels. Highly recommended. So nice and quiet with stunning scenery, nice walk to a great pub too.
