Quaint

We stayed in the coach house room built in 1600’s, so quaint and so much character. The gardens are stunning, even though it was raining, took a quick walk to appreciate them. Lots of breakfast choices cooked to your liking. John (the owner) was lovely and took the time to explain the property to us.

10/10 Exceptional

What a delightful stay in a well styled Manor. All the rooms are tastefully appointed & in keeping with the era which gives a warm homely feeling to your stay. Delightful staff eager to help, made our stay even more homely. The showers are difficult to use & perhaps a queen bed to replace the double size would be our only positive criticism. Despite these small criticisms the stay was just delightful.

10/10 Exceptional

We loved our stay at the Woodhill house. The host was amazing. We enjoyed a late dinner, drink, and conversation in the cozy bar/lounge the night of our arrival. Breakfast the following morning was delicious and the staff was very attentive. The property is older and needs some TLC, but still charming and well worth the money and drive.

The host was very nice and accommodating. The bed was lovely and comfortable in a spacious room off the main house. It was within a 5 minute walk of the town.

Danielle, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This is a super cute bed and breakfast. We stayed in the outer building in a family room. It was absolutely beautiful with a little balcony overlooking the cutest little garden. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The breakfast was excellent. My only complaints were the Wi-Fi did not work great in the outer building and there was zero pressure in the shower head but we just took a bath instead and that was great.
