Spindlestone House is a lovely spacious property with generous sized rooms, great for family gatherings especially if booking Spindlestone Cottage as well.

We enjoyed staying at the house, it fitted all ten of us comfortably. It was a wonderful place, very quiet and relaxed. We enjoyed the games room and hot tub and all 10 of us sitting around the dinning table comfortably eating dinner. Ideally located to all the places we wanted to go too. Enjoyed the little country lane walks as well.
