The Lazy Squire by The Water Reviews

This is a very special place. So peaceful & away from it all. Felt completely relaxed and comfortable. Host very friendly & accommodating. Surroundings are beautiful. Property clean and tidy and the hot tub was a luxury.

Sharon

Really enjoyed our stay. The location is fabulous and we thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub . I would have liked a sensor light in the bedroom above the stairs as it was quite difficult to find the light switch when getting up when it was still dark.

A wonderful uniquely romantic place to stay. The location is so peaceful with beautiful views. Amazing how all the facilities fit, its very well equipped.

Rebecca

This was our second stay at the Lazy Squire, and once again it was a peaceful break from the real world. The converted grain silo is compact and isolated as advertised! but with a beautiful view from the hot tub over the reservoir and other outdoor seating too. There are plenty of lovely walks in the local area to keep you entertained. The cats remain as friendly and persistent as ever so if, like me, you have allergies, stock up on the anti histamines as they are desperate to make friends! Thanks for another restful and relaxing stay.

Fabulous, wonderful quaint and quirky place to stay.

Angela
