"Fantastic cottage with three amazing bedrooms. Loved the use of the golf course and even better our kids had us net fishing in the river every day without fail! Idyllic setting and entry into Athelhampton house and gardens was a real bonus and a fab day out."

"This holiday really was the best I have had it was perfect for all my family my 80 year old mum down to my 2 year old son - there was something for us all to do and see. The cottage was a dream as were the grounds and the staff were fantastic and very helpful. We have such great and special memories that I can't wait to go and experience them all again next year - thank you!"
