Relax and Unwind at Hawklee Country House

9.0

Excellent hospitality from the hostess, Tanya. She was prepared and willing to accede to our meal requests as we had specific diet requirements. The cottage was well equipped with all the necessary amenities. Hawklee is situated in a serene and peaceful country setting with trees and a meandering river. It is an ideal location to intend and relax.
