The location is highly praised for its tranquillity, lack of noise disturbance, and minimal light pollution, making it ideal for stargazing and enjoying the natural surroundings.

Comfort is a strong point, with guests finding the bed very comfy and the overall stay relaxing. The wood burner and hot tub add to the cosy and comfortable experience.

    • Mrs James

      My wife and I spent 2 nights at the mallard for our 5 year wedding anniversary with 2 of our dogs. It was bliss. The views from everywhere were breath taking. The hot tub had a perfect picturesque scenes. The bed nook was so comfortable. The wood burner was a lovely touch and all the information to go on walks etc was fantastic. Our dogs adored the space they had to roam and loved the river at the bottom on the field. Loved our stay
