"Myself, wife and 3 children visited for 7 nights, what a beautiful place, something for everyone. We stayed in the farmhouse very clean and tidy, lots of room.
Having the swimming pool each day just for our family was a massive help for an hour, inspired my son to learn to swim and going everyday has helped a great deal.
Jill was always on hand if required, the play room had everything, whilst my sons played pool and table tennis, my daughter was happy playing with peppa pigs and dress up.
Value for money was incredible, we will 100% be back to this beautiful place"

"Lovely week at the Appleloft. Great place for the children to safely run around and play. The swimming pool was a real bonus especially being able to book slots so it was just us in there. Jill always very helpful with any queries. Our second time at Lower Wood farm and I’m sure we will come again."

"We had a fantastic holiday at Lower Wood Farm, Jill was very accommodating and helpful. Russet was immaculately clean, spacious and just perfect for our family of 4. Jill provided a cot for my 2 year old and we all slept really well. The facilities at Lower Wood Farm are brilliant, the swimming pool is very clean and we loved that we could book private sessions. The play barn was amazing, and we struggled to get our children out of this. We would Highly recommend this holiday and can definitely see ourselves revisiting in the future. Many thanks Jill and team"

"Highly recommend Lower Wood Farm cottages definitely have the wow factor! Absolutely everything you need for a fabulous family holiday. It’s very quiet and a perfect safe location. The facilities are brilliant for young children and early teens ,with bikes, footballs, pedal toys and the play barn is like a toy shop. The swimming pool is lovely and warm and well maintained. The cottages are beautifully decorated and equipped with practically everything you need for your stay. The only things we actually needed to buy were cling film, aluminium foil and extra loo rolls! The only small issue was condensation in the bathroom after showering, probably needs a better ventilator installed. Would love to come again"

"BBQ availability difficult when site full. A rota like the swimming pool would have helped or an individual BBQ would be nice.
This would have helped planning the rvening meal.
Again when the site was full, drying became a problem as the washing line was too small.
However, small niggles about a great place to stay for all ages."
