"best weekend away we have ever had" - family birthday party - May Bank Holiday Weekend 08 -

Just wanted to say on behalf of myself and my family a huge Thankyou for a wonderful weekend and that the accommodation and surroundings were perfect for our needs, My Father has not stopped talking about it since we got back and loved having the opportunity to have all his family around him.  Walk Farm House Cottages x 4   -  April 08

I wish to thank you for the use of Walk House & Walk Farmhouse for the recent long weekend spent in celebration of my Birthday.  Some 20 relations gathered. They were from every decade and all expressed that they enjoyed their stay.  The properties were both roomy and well equipped.  The area was fine for touring, the young ones went go-karting in Gloucester and the older ones found less strenuous places to visit.  We had room to sit indoors or outdoors with the children able to play.  Pity it snowed in April but I`m not going to blame you because the views were fantastic.  In the vernacular of our school children present you are awarded a large Tick and an `Excellent` for effort in caring for visitors   family group in the Walk Farm Houses  - April 08

Thanks very much again for a wonderful stay, we love your beautiful house.
