The Country Retreat Reviews

Mark
Honestly, this was one of the top holidays we've enjoyed in the UK. We gathered a big group for a 60th birthdayand everyone was thrilled. The facilities were spot on - comfortable and well-equipped. Plus, those breathtaking views and the historic charm of the place made it truly special. Not a single complaint from anyone!
James
We had an amazing stay! The house is gorgeous, really spacious and beautifully decorated, perfect for our Easter get-together and birthday celebrations. The gardens are huge - the kids loved exploring and the Easter Egg hunt was a hit. Definitely a place we'd return to!
Emma
Broadfield truly is a lovely place. Every room shows so much care and attention, making it super comfy. The communication beforehand was spot onand when we arrived, it was clear that nothing was too much trouble if we needed help. It's close enough to shops if you want them, but honestly, the peaceful surroundings make you feel miles away from everything. We'd definitely recommend staying here - it's perfect for a relaxing getaway!
