Superb weekend at a phenomenal house. Beautiful surroundings, lovely views, and a huge house/property. So many spaces to entertain, chill, read, swim, cook and socialise. I feel we barely scratched the surface - one could stay for a week and still find new things to do. The staff were incredibly friendly and quick to help with whatever is needed.

We had a wonderful stay with family and friends at Guinevere for a birthday celebration weekend. The staff were welcoming and accommodating to all our requests. The rooms are spacious and the beds beautifully comfortable. We spent many hours around the huge fireplace, and also enjoyed walks in area. I highly recommend this lovely spot for a country getaway.

I’ve been here 4 times over the years, and every time I’ve been amazed. The grounds are beyond stunning. The attention to detail from the service and host are so thoughtful. It’s got to be one of the most stunning wedding venues around - the inside courtyard!!! Most of my photos shown are from the recent wedding here in 2024. 😍Can’t wait to come back!
