A note from the site themselves...

Our site is a wonderful place for wildlife spotting. Listen to the babbling brook, keep an eye out for the owls that can be heard at night, and watch out for deer in the opposite field or the kingfisher that visits the lake daily. We hope you get to come and see this all for yourself soon, Paul
