What a fantastic trip. We visited the Royal Warwicks as usual then found seven cemeteries we had not been to before. A great stay. Thank you Richard, Michelle and Carol for your hospitality as usual. See you in November.

Another lovely stay, never want to leave. Total home from home. This year is extra special as it is today (13th) the 100th anniversary of my great grandads passing. Thank you Richard & Michelle for your lovely cottage and all you do to help us on our pilgrimages.

Came here after a recommendation, superb, lovely cottage with all amenities and the history all around is staggering. Will be back. Thank you very much. Even the kids (3+6) have enjoyed it and hopefully learnt one or two things in the process!!

Well the end of another great holiday break and 10 days of fun and fulfilment. 6 years on and we never stop enjoying coming here. It is now a place to visit friends and it always feels that way. Richard, Michelle & Jonathan thank you so much and see you again next year.

Wonderful week, as ever, thank you!
Martin King, January 2018
I met Richard & Michelle during a round the world cycle trip in April 2016. I'd only left the UK the week before and they were so kind and accommodating in this lovely, tranquil setting. They were the first of thousands of wonderful, kind people I met on my 16 month trek around the globe passing through 24 countries along the way. How nice to return some 20 months later to share stories again. They are a wonderful couple, so kind, friendly and interesting.
Thank you once again, Mon Amis!

Thank you for your fantastic hospitality. we have had a lovely few days away visiting Vimy Ridge, Lochnagar Crater, Ulster Tower and most importantly walking the battlefields. Love the presentation of artefacts found around the house and the descriptions alongside. Thank you very much for the welcoming gifts that we found on arrival.

Thank you for the splendid base for our researchers. We have visited 54 cemeteries and photographed 201 graves of men from our home area. We were all very impressed by the facilities you have provided and hope to return one day.
