To be greeted with big smiles, a warm welcome and stunning room after a long journey was a huge relief.  On arrival we instantly felt at home, especially when tucking into the home made cream teas.  Attention to detail in and out of the room will bring us back very soon.  There was nothing Janet & Robin hadn’t thought of.  Sausage for the doggies at breakfast time made Jack’s stay a happy one.  To be sad to leave, but happy to have found such a beautiful place and people.  We will be back very soon.

Most eventful few days - ask Janet about pyjamas/puppies!  A lovely stay with great hosts, good food, comfort all round - nothing could have been better - what a super place for us + Charlie (the lurcher).  We’ll be back!

By card - Many thanks for a terrific stay at The Old Joinery - such great hospitality in very cheerful surroundings.  For us it was a relaxing break we needed and the lovely Poppy Suite and views made it that we didn’t feel the need to venture far at all.  And as for those little rascale - what fun they were ‘Puppies at Breakfast’ will be a lasting memory for us!

[Pyjamas/Puppies - Rosie, one of our Jack Russells, gave birth to 7 pups during breakfast!]
