We booked the week before Christmas & to arrive to a beautiful huge tree in the courtyard & another in our cottage was lovely. The welcome hamper was exceptional including wine, a beautiful cake & lots of food was so nice. Likewise all the everyday essentials were provided to a high standard. Thank you so much! We will return.
