We would like to thank Laurie for this lovely review of his families stay at Old Great House.
Over the last few months we have had a large number of neuro divergent children staying with us, who have benefitted greatly from the peace, being in open spaces and meeting our farm animals.
Laurie has suggested that we should be promoting this to families as he says there are very few places that are so accommodating to families and children with additional needs - we don't see the additional need, we see the child/children and the family just making memories together in our accommodations.
"We had an absolutely fantastic stay as a family of 8, 6 adults and 2 children. The barn is lovely, spacious, well-equipped and really homely. It had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay, with beautiful, picturesque views all around and a gorgeous garden.
The hosts, Lynne and her family, were so lovely and welcoming, and everyone we met on the farm was incredibly friendly. Lynne was also incredibly accommodating with our little boy, who is autistic and non-verbal. This is always something we worry about when going away, but he settled straight away and absolutely loved his holiday, which meant so much to us.
The farm itself is beautiful, and the hot tub was a fantastic bonus and the perfect way to relax. The animals were another massive highlight, especially for our boys. They loved seeing the cows, goats, sheep and donkeys every day!
All round, it was a fantastic stay in a beautiful setting with wonderful hosts. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and would recommend" Laurie
