• "This is a great property for a gathering, plenty of communal spaces, spacious bedrooms with plenty of storage space."

  Clean bathrooms with toiletries. A great kitchen area with everything that we needed. The main dining room is a really lovely space but there is a short walk between this room and the kitchen. A minor point but it would have been nice to know from the listing that someone would be staying in the annex whilst we were using the property.

  Glad to hear you enjoyed your stay. I will ask Sykes to put our host in the annex Property Owner

• "Lovely stay at this wonderful house."

  Booked for a 70th birthday celebration. Plenty of space in the house and gardens for 11 adults, 3 children and a baby! Perfect to either stay at home or travel to local attractions. Play park for the children only a couple of minutes down the road. They also enjoyed feeding the farm animals. Thank you Sharon! Only negatives were that the garden furniture was a bit 'tired' although we managed to get enough chairs together to eat outside. And there were no instructions for the hot tub, which was quite hot as we had really hot days when we were there.

  Thank you very much for staying with us and taking time to send us this feedback. We will follow up on your feedback Property Owner

• "Having just spent the weekend at Yew Tree Farm with family and friends, I can only highly recommend."

  It is a huge house and beautiful gardens with a hot tub that was already for us on arrival. A welcome hamper was a lovely touch from the owner, as were the fresh flowers. He also allowed us an early check-in, which we were grateful for, as were all arriving from various locations. All the bedrooms are really spacious and comfortable. The bathrooms are clean with the added touch of soaps and hand creams with loads of towels. One downside is an extra, more central bathroom, would be an advantage, especially downstairs. We were having to share the ensuite one's but this didn't spoil our stay. The kitchen and conservatory were lovely and functional with the great airy and light dining room a perfect central area for all being together. Anyone wanting a bit of quiet time, the 'red' lounge served them well. I contacted the owner before arriving to ask if there were any fans in the property to which he promptly replied to say there weren't. However, he had obviously gone out of his way to obtain several and placed them throughout the house before our arrival! Thank you Yew Tree Farm for helping us having an amazing weekend and wouldn't hesitate in returning

• "We were a family group of four generations, ages ranging from 1 to 82!"

  We have just enjoyed a lovely week's holiday at Yew Tree Farm. We found the accommodation to be comfortable and clean. There were plenty of towels provided for all the rooms, and for the use of the hot tub. The kitchen was very well equipped with large cooking pots and pans, which is essential for large groups such as ours. The only negatives for us was no ground floor en-suite for our oldest member, and a problem with the dishwasher drawer constantly coming off the rail. But all in all we had a wonderful holiday!!

• "A Lovely Stay with Some Room for Improvement We recently stayed at Yew Tree Farm for a hen weekend and overall, it was a delightful experience."

  Theo was welcoming and even offered us a later check out which was very nice. The house provided a great space for our group, however, there were a few issues that need attention. 1. Broken Dishwasher Rack: Unfortunately, the dishwasher rack was broken. It made cleaning up after meals a bit challenging. We hope this can be fixed for future guests. 2. Faulty Sink Covered with Tape: We noticed that the sink had some issues and was covered with tape. While it didn’t affect our stay significantly, it would be better if this were properly repaired as it makes the kitchen look a little untidy. 3. Washing Up from Previous Guests: When we arrived we noticed that the dishes from previous guests hadn’t been tidied away. 4. Hot Tub Concerns: The hot tub felt gritty, and it seemed like the chlorine tablet hadn’t dissolved properly. 5. Damp Smell in the Master Bedroom: A previous review also mentioned a damp smell in the master bedroom. Addressing this issue would greatly enhance the overall comfort of the stay. We also feel that it would be useful if one or two more of the rooms had twin beds instead of all being doubles. Despite these minor hiccups, we thoroughly enjoyed our time. We definitely recommend visiting the pub (The Bull and Butcher) which is across the green for a Sunday roast. We also visited Sunnyhill Vineyard which is a 30 minute drive from the house and had a really lovely time there. It is family run and they were very friendly and the alpacas a delight.

• "We had a great stay, were very comfortable and felt that the house was very easy to live in, despite our large party."

  We much enjoyed the hot tub which everyone went in at some point. There were a few issues with the dishwasher in that some of the racks were a bit broken and the runners wouldn't stay on, but we managed. We appreciated that the house was well stocked with extras like salt and pepper, sauces, plastic storge bags and kitchen roll. Extras that are so often forgotten. Thank you for everything and the warm welcome. We will certainly consider rebooking at another time.

• "Lovely house in a great spot with the farm at the back of the property which is lovely to be able to go and visit."

  House was spotless and great for entertaining a large amount of people, pub across the road provides great food and the play area is awesome for kids. Hosts were incredibly kind, the Easter Eggs for the little girl with us was a lovely touch. One word of warning for future visitors is that although advertised as dog friendly, there is a cat who frequently visits the property - we saw him every day we were there. My dog is not cat friendly and luckily I managed to chase the cat away before my dog saw him but it would not have ended well if the two had come face to face - I would not suggest staying here if your dog doesn't get on with cats.

  Noted your comments about the cat. Property Owner

• "The welcome was exceptional with a generous hamper, fresh flowers in many of the rooms and decorated for Christmas' It was warm and comfotable, with plenty of logs for an open fire."

  The sitting room was large enough for 18 to play familly games or just relax.. The beds were all comfortable and the rooms all interestingly decorated with lots of African artifacts.Plenty of soft towels and toilet rolls. plus the extra towels for the hottub that the grandchhildren enjoyed. The grounds were well laid and out and will be perfectfor summer visitors. Having the farm to visit was a bonus and the hospitality of the family. Theo was exceptioaly helpful and friendly. Thank you, we felt at home.

  Thanks for taking time to send us such great feedback. We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay and we hope you will come and stay again. Property Owner

• "We had a great stay at yew tree farm."

  There was no negative comments that any of the families had. With a horde of children in tow the caretaker on site was amazing in showing them the animals in the farm at the back of the property and helping with any requests or problems we had promptly. Close to the the property there is a great adventure playground and local pub within a short walk We would definitely recommend this property those with young children.

  Rory and Families.. Thank you for the lovely comments and I am glad Theo was able to make your stay even more enjoyable. Wishing you all a Happy Christmas and hope to see you again. Best Wishes, Nyasha Property Owner

• "This is a lovely property that was perfect for celebrating my daughter's 30th birthday with family and friends."

  It is nicely decorated with 8 good sized bedrooms, 2 with ensuite, and a delightful galleried dining room with a table to seat 18 people. We arrived to see beautiful flowers and a big welcome basket when we opened the front door, which was a nice touch, and the place was generally well provided for. Theo, the owner's brother, lives in the grounds and couldn't have been more helpful. I would highly recommend Yew Tree Farm.

  Debbie thanks for coming to stay, please come back anytime. Theo really enjoyed hosting you and your family. Thanks again Nyasha Property Owner
