Dear Arthur and Barbara,
I had to write on behalf of our party, who stayed in Lavender cottage from 24th August to 31st August, to say thank you so much for allowing us to stay on your beautiful farm.
The cottage was wonderful, spacious, well equipped, very clean and the flowers and fruit made us feel welcome when we arrived.
We had a great time travelling around the county and with your farm being very central it made visiting beauty spots very easy. We would recommend your facilities to family and friends.
Thank you again

just a note of thanks for our recent stay in Cowslip Cottage which we enjoyed very much indeed. The cottage was perfect for us; my brother is a little disabled and can't cope with stairs so it was ideal being on one level, and we were very grateful for such a lovely welcome with the fresh flowers and fruit which you kindly provided. The view from the cottage was beautiful and it was a very tranquil spot, with good access to some interesting places in Staffordshire and Shropshire.
Everything provided, linen, towels and kitchen equipment was excellent. Very many thanks.

I love your farm, I love everything about it, I even love how you work it, I want to live and work here. Thank you for letting me see all the things you do at this farm and letting me help you with it. It was amazing to go herding the cows with you and my friend Alice. I hope you will not forget me because I'm never ever going to forget you or your farm. I never want to leave this place and I hope I can come again very soon.

Our extended family all stayed at Foxglove cottage for 2 weeks over the Easter Holiday, and the whole stay was perfect. There was more than enough room for all of us, the kitchen is huge and modern, and the living room easily fit us as well as our visiting friends and relatives. The farm was HEAVEN for our children. There are toys in the cottage and outside there is a trampoline, table tennis, badminton net, tennis court, a bike and tractors to ride and a great swing in the meadow. Also there is a games room with fuzbol table and a snooker table in addition to more toys. Loads of space for running, playing and cricket games. Best of all, though, was being on the farm itself. Arthur and Sally were so kind and generous in taking time out of their busy schedule running the farm to let the kids see the animals and answer their questions about life on the farm. And Rachael was always there if we needed anything, from extra towels to hints using the wifi to getting us a new toilet seat! We hope we will be able to stay at Oulton Farm again the next time we go to England--I can't imagine any other place working out so perfectly.

I just wanted to say thank you for our fabulous weekend in Foxglove and Lavender. We all thoroughly enjoyed the properties and the whole weekend. Oulton Farm is the perfect place for family get togethers and I only wish we had had a week.
Many Thanks

"Over half term we came to stay at Foxglove Cottage for 3 nights. I would like to say how enjoyable our stay was and how fantastic we thought the cottage and grounds were. We will definitely be trying to return for another holiday in the future."

"We have just returned from a lovely Ruby Wedding celebration for my Brother-in-law and Sister-in-law at your farm cottages with all the family this weekend. It was super and we were all very impressed with both cottages, Bluebell and Cornflower, they were beautifully furnished and very well equipped. In fact we would like to book next year for my 60th Birthday. Looking forward to coming again next year!"

"I wanted to write and say how much we enjoyed our stay with you at Oulton Farm last week.
"Our two year old spent hours looking out of the windows at the animals, tractors and general beauty that surround us! The cottage was extremely spacious, very comfortable, relaxing and so clean. We hope to come again soon.
"Thank you for your friendly welcome and for such a fantastic fun holiday."

"Thank you very much for this weekend - the cottages and surroundings were perfect. The kids were in their element feeding the lambs and playing on the tractors. We all had a great time. I am sure that we will all be back and will certainly recommend Oulton House Farm to friends."

"We would just like to say how much we've enjoyed our stay at Cowslip Cottage. It's been very comfortable and we've had everything we've needed. The tennis court has been great - we've played most days. Thank you for a great stay."
Samantha and Sue Marshall, March 2010
"I just wanted to say a big THANK YOU for helping accommodate my family and myself during our stay. Allowing my parents to leave their car near the doorway to the cottage (Foxglove) was very kind of you. It helped alot with my dad being disabled and not having to rush to get him out on Sunday was wonderful. I shall certainly recommend your cottages to others. We had an absolutely lovely time and can't wait to book again."
Judith, Paul, George and Sam Clark, Joan and John Smedley, February 2010
"Just a note to say thank you for our very relaxing week away, we thoroughly enjoyed staying at Oulton House Farm. The cottage was just perfect especially with my parents who are both elderly and somewhat disabled. We hope you have a very successful year with the business and we look forward to staying with you again in the future."

"Happy New Year! Thank you so much for the use of Bluebell and Foxglove over the New Year, we had a fantastic time! The houses were so comfortable, clean and better than we could have imagined! Everyone was so happy and singing there praises! There was plenty of hot water, the houses were warm and comfortable. We had everything we wanted!
"We had a lovely walk to the local pub, due to your helpful directions and the trampoline got used, even in the freezing temperature! We have already talked about coming again next year! Thank you."

"Thank you for a lovely stay in Cowslip Cottage. We have had a really good holiday and much of our enjoyment has been because we have had such a wonderful base to return to everyday. Highlihgts would include Norbury Junction, Stoke on Trent, (Burslem) Stafford and, of course, Trentham Gardens.
"The beautiful view from the cottage will be something we will always remember. Thank you again for the lovely cottage and for providing all the added extra's for disabled people."
