Beautiful place to disconnect

We loved our stay at The Old Dairy, the location was beautiful with walks and wide, open spaces. The hosts were welcoming and helpful. And the house - beautiful! What had once been stables or an old barn had been turned into a clean, modern, well-appointed vacation home. It had everything we could have asked for! And the breakfast food waiting for us was the cherry on top! We hope to go back again one day. ”

Above and Beyond

Our hosts Miranda and Damien went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The pantry was stocked with cereals, bread, eggs and there was milk etc in the fridge. Whilst the old dairy is set out of town and a car is needed to go further afield there are numerous walks on public footpaths close by. Miranda and Damien provide a comprehensive binder filled with suggestions for places to see, restaurants and the house rules. Will definitely be back here again!”

Wonderful stay at the Old Dairy!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Old Dairy! Wonderful property and awesome hosts! The Hopkins were ever ready to help with every request and suggestions. The property is in a wonderful picturesque serene location. They took care of every little detail and we felt thoroughly pampered. The surrounding area information was very helpful and we made daily trips to London, Cambridge, Stamford and other beautiful cities and towns. My girls commented that this was the most beautiful exchange we have done, and we have traveled a lot! They loved visiting with the horses at the farmhouse. Our first exchange with ThirdHome was definitely a memorable experience!”
