So a bit about us -
We are Dean and Lucie, we have a lurcher called George Clooney (yes we full name him !!!) and recently 5 chickens (Tina, Judy, Helen, Shelia and Violet) and we have lived at Orchard View since November 2019.
Prior to us moving in, the property was owned by Lucie's Mum and Dad (Judy and Dave) who you will probably see during your stay. They owned the property for over 20 years and it has been Lucie's family home for most of her life.
We both have backgrounds working on holiday parks, however we did not like the hustle and bustle of a holiday on a holiday park and had often thought how nice it would be if you could get the best of both worlds with the standard of accommodation without the party atmosphere of a bustling park.
We decided to set up our retreat because of the Covid-19 virus the whole world was affected by.
It occurred to us during the first lockdown of 2020 that we truly had the ideal place to relax and felt selfish for not sharing it.
We started thinking what we would like to have, hence the garden for a dog, the luxury of a hot tub, the privacy of our own space but also the reassurance knowing someone is close by if they are needed.
Pictures of our retreat will constantly be added.
We look forward to welcoming you to our retreat.
Set in a fully enclosed section of our private garden we are on hand for any help or info that you require but will not intrude into your break.
Check in time 3pm early check in may be possible at a cost of £15 per hour (please let us know estimated time of arrival)
Check out time 10am (late check out available at a cost of £10 per hour) Unauthorised late check out will be charged a fee of £25 and an additional £10 per hour (rounded up to the nearest hour)
We are very laid back when it comes to rules, all we ask is for some common sense and common courtesy.
We do however ask that as it is set in our family home noise outside is kept to a minimum after 10pm and the hot tub is not used after this time. (likewise we will do the same)
Please check hot tub rules inside the accommodation and outside next to the hot tub.
if you do not adhere to these unfortunately we may have to charge a fee for a replacement or a reasonable for for loss of use.
Please do not let dogs on the beds as the bedding is expensive, if this happens we will have to charge for any marks that are unable to be removed.
No Smoking inside (outside is fine)
Please clear up any dogs mess and place in outside bin (excessive mess left in garden will be charged £25 for clearing)
General common courtesy please.
