FEEDBACK:

November 11th 2007
'Somersal is clean, tidy & sweet. Jenny is all about the little touches. On our bedroom table, beside a fresh lily in a vase, is a bowl of scorched almonds mixed in with pink and white marshmallows. The electric blanket is on in anticipation of our arrival so we join them in the lounge for a cup of tea and homemade cake before bed'.

'Jenny whips up a tasty breakfast of bacon, scrambled eggs and croissants but it's the stewed rhubarb that wins me over. We then stroll around their garden with its blossoming cherry trees and watch the Waipa River snake by'.
