Geoffrey
It had everything anyone could wish for - a beautifully laid out kitchen with everything at hand, everywhere was clean to a high standard, comfortable beds and a large bright bathroom including a bath. While we were there it snowed so we made full use of the log burner in the lounge, we were so warm and cosy we didnât want to move anywhere! There was excellent communication between ourselves and Paul throughout our stay. Weâve recommended Willow View to friends and family and we have already booked a return visit. Thank you Paul and Sarah for allowing us to use your wonderful house. Barbara and Geoff

It is well equipped, comfortable and standards of cleanliness are high. The big plus is the location which is so central; street parking would be challenging but Frankwell is fine as long as the river hasnât flooded.
