If you're looking for a peaceful get away in a beautiful setting a stone's throw from the sea, Mazzard Farm ticks all the boxes. Family friendly accommodation, loads of outside space and freedom to let the kids explore the woods safely.
Extremely high standard accommodation in self-contained cottages and a personal touch from Ruud and Jacqueline who are on site to give expert advice on the best places to visit and explore. We'll keep coming back and bring our friends. Wow factor and then some.
