A group of 10 adults, 5 couple plus a well behaved dog, stayed here in early December. I can honestly say it was faultless. The grounds are meticulously kept, the building itself is warm, modern, high end finishes and we had a fantastic stay. We had a lovely artisan basket waiting for us on arrival, plus the whole property was decorated for Christmas inside and out with beautiful lights and a real Christmas tree next to the log burner. True Christmas atmosphere. We will 100% be looking to book again. The owners were responsive and extremely helpful with recommendations. Bracken Ground is awesome.
