Pleasant with gorgeous garden walks
It was most enjoyable. The only quibble was that some of the kitchen utensils weren't the best, making it difficult to prepare vegetables!

A Perfect Tonic
Summer or Winter Flaxmere is the perfect place to unwind and leave the troubles of your particular world at the gate. A warm welcome from Penny, a log fire and acres of beautiful gardens to wander though. Add good friends, great food and a bottle or two of your favourite wine and you have the perfect weekend. Truly, a tranquil oasis for the soul. Thank you Penny, we will be back again soon.
