Thank you for our enjoyable stay Suzanne and Tony. Great hosts who left us to our own devices, who were there if we needed.
Your Old School House is absolutely delightful, comfortable and cosy. That rain shower was magnificent especially after a restful nights sleep. We also enjoyed the history of the property.

The property is just as spectacular as the photos show. It has a lovely ambience and we loved the high ceilings. The surrounding gardens are also very impressive. The owners were very accommodating and during that really hot Boxing day they provided us with additional cooling fans. We would certainly stay there again.
