We thoroughly recommend Rains Farm as a perfect venue for a short break or longer holiday. It is super clean and super comfortable and beautifully set in a lovely area convenient for any type of holiday activity. It would be difficult to find a better place to stay. All awards are well deserved.

We stayed here for a week over half term 2012. A very clean and well presented cottage with friendly owners. Cottage was well fitted with comfortable beds and facilities. It would be nice if the wi-fi reached the cottage, but I got a GSM signal on my phone. Very highly recommended.

Thank you for taking the time to write such a lovely, positive review. I am working on the wi fi situation. It is available in certain cottages already and hope that by the next time you stay the situation of wi fi access will be resolved by boosting the signal around the properties. More
