What guests are saying
This was our third visit and once again we were delighted by the very high standards set by the property owner.
Our family love every aspect of the house especially our two grandsons. For comfort and location Low House ticks every box, we would highly recommend it.
We had a lovely stay at Low House and would definitely like to return.
It is ideal for a family get together and a lot of thought has been put into providing everything you might need from plentiful kitchen equipment to a games room for a range of ages. We would love to return in the summer to bring the paddleboard or kayak
A superb accommodation for 8 energetic 50 somethings in a fabulous location.
