Brook House was very comfortable and had everything that we could want for our Christmas holiday! It struck the perfect balance of being both cost and sizable with different breakout spaces for our group of 7 to thoroughly enjoy our stay. We would definitely recommend the property.

This is a very special property. Everything has been provided with such care and thought. The games room and playroom were pounced on by our grandchildren, and the tree house and trampoline as well.

We had a fabulous stay at Brook House. We loved the location and the proximity to the coast. The house was very comfortable and suited our family very well. The garden was stunning.Perhaps a list of local walks would be helpful, we got lost a couple of times but didnt mind that much!
