    “We enjoyed our stay at How Hill; when we have stayed in similar places in the past, there has always been a guide book, recommending places to visit and where to eat out etc etc.”

    with comments from previous guests. Also advice on how to operate systems - we were unable to discover how to use the oven, and the hosts didn’t know either but very kindly cooked our fish pie in their Aga. I am writing the difficulties; otherwise the place was lovely, clean, beautifully furnished and with very comfy beds.
