The most memorable part of the holiday was the tranquility and bird song. (more)Steve Cragg

Swims in the pool listening to the birdsong and watching the trees move in the early morning breeze was memorable. (more)Sarah Griffin

Very good. given the time of year and consequent weather, we had a relaxing time, and will look forward to having the chance to go again later in the spring/summer (more)Mary Morris

Truly relaxing, very peaceful - we haven't slept so well in a very long time - great to slow down and soak up the beautiful countryside. Ian made us feel very welcome and the homemade cake was delicious. (more)Sue Cross-Bourton

Maggie and Ian are genuinely committed to minimal environmental impact tourism, and it shows everywhere you look .... They are welcoming, enthusiastic, and full of ideas for great days out and activities in the local area. (more)Julia Key

We had a great time - relaxing, some beautiful experiences (beaches, hills, islands and all the above animals). We were in bed every night by 9.30pm - tired but blissfully comfortable after a day spent exploring. (more)Jayne Obeng

Perfect!....The best thing about the holiday was having no internet connection & very little mobile coverage. It made it a total break away & allowed us to appreciate everything about the location of cottage & the amazing surrounding area. It was a complete break away which is what a holiday should be.

Relaxing, away from crowds, there is a choice to completely cut off and enjoy what the farm has to offer or combine with trips to local medieval towns (more)Angela Petrou

Many memorable moments, but probably the bell ringers in Gubbio, the Medieval procession in Montane and the guided walk with Gino and new friends also staying at La Cerqua. (more)Sue Hammond

This is a superb place for a relaxing and fascinating holiday in the Umbrian countryside. Welcoming hosts, beautiful, peaceful surroundings, guided walks, horse-riding, organic food and a small pool on site. Fantastic forest walks, breathtaking views and medieval villages and towns all nearby. (more)Charlotte Chadderton

The most memorable part of the trip was the incredible kindness & thoughtfulness of the owner, Gonzalo. He went out of his way to make my 7 night stay relaxing, worry-free. (more)Bev Fechner

Lovely shady garden with lots of running water in a beautiful, peaceful setting. There were many places to sit and enjoy the ambiance either with or away from the other visitors... (more)Alison Bowyer

Wonderful calm and atmosphere of 5 moons. Superb. (more)Tony Paine

Memorable parts? The construction of the houses is unique. Silence in the night is complete. The space utilization inside is admirable. Tips? Confirm very clearly how many beds are there in the house. While I had communicated clearly that we are a family of four with kids 8 and 10, there were only three beds in the house. The owner had communicated that there is one double bed and one sofa bed. The sofa bed turned out to be a single folding bed. We joined the other two beds allowing... (more)Sunoor Verma

Memorable parts? The scenery. Peace and tranquility Tips? Not an awful lot to do, it was the perfect place to relax after Dubrovnik. We just sat and admired the view and drank wine in the evening watching the sunset. Can't use high power electrical devices like hairdryers - Phone chargers ok. Local benefits? Yes definitely. Solar powered electricity. Lots of local produce for sale. Overall rating? It was fantastic. After 12 days touring Croatia it was the perfect... (more)Kirsty Sullivan

We have lots of lovely memories so it is difficult to single any one thing out. But as we have to choose we would say the beautiful views gardens pool and the charming cottages which provide a wonderful environment in which to relax and also the great welcome and inobtrusive support of the family who built, own and run the estate. (more)Katie Wheatley

Our stay was a unique & happy experience, unlike any previous holiday. While it can be a challenge to get there, the effort is repaid abundantly. It’s an eco-chic vacation in a cottage where everything can be taken care of, according to one’s wishes. One returns refreshed in mind & body. (more)Bryan Parker

Birds, bats, bees, lizards, pine martens, countless types of flowers and olive, eucalyptus and cypress trees blend in with the traditional style houses. We loved the walks around the forest... I could have spent the entire 10 days happily without leaving the estate at all. (more)Chris Kearney

A memorable vacation to a unique land. Our host was outstanding. He will cater to all flavors of veg, but we had no trouble getting him to feed us vegan or nearly-vegan cuisine. All delicious and filling. (more)Richard Stone

I would highly recommend that bed and breakfast to anyone who needs some time away from the crouds and from their lives. I felt like staying even longer as Phil (the host) made my stay a very pleasant one and kept giving me insider-tips where to hike out to or what to do. He was very helpful. (more)Hanna Leipold

This is the perfect place to relax and to experience the England countryside (more)José de Jong

Lovely guests, superb location...Excellent. (more)Philippe Basquin

The countryside around the farm is absolutely stunning, and it's perfect for a chilled-out, wind-down kind of holiday where you can simply relax and soak up the landscapes around you. (more)Julia Key

Absolutely wonderful, peace, quiet, sun, organic food and beautiful surroundings, with excellent hosts. I would love to return here one day. (more)Janet Richards
