The intermittent internet made checkins and travel business a little bumpy

Robin’s place is a gorgeous welcoming home in the lovely surrounds of Surrey with plentiful birdlife amongst the woodlands and beautiful gardens. Robin is such a charming character, a raconteur with endless stories of his colourful life- and with Marie and her mediterranean influence in the lounge and kitchen- you can have an evening far removed from the average bland hotel experience ! We took up the ‘candlelit dinner’ option and enjoyed a very tasty home cooked meal with added conversation and laughs . The breakfast was equally excellent. The internet was not the best but we didn’t miss it as we were too busy being in the moment !

I thought there would be a TV and coffee-making facilities in the room. But it did not matter.

Great breakfast. Lovely location.

It was all very pleasant and near to where we needed to be. It was quite tricky to find so worth looking on Google maps before you visit. There was nothing we didn't like.

The location was lovely, very remote and peaceful. We enjoyed seeing the geese and chickens in the garden which was well looked after. We had breakfast outside which was very pleasant and our host Robin was very informative and friendly. Delicious continental breakfast with homemade marmalade and a full English with fresh eggs from the hens.

Tea or coffee facilities in the bedroom would have been useful. We were shown where everything was in the kitchen, and Marie and Robin always welcomed us, Marie happily jumping up to make tea/coffee as required, but we felt guilty disturbing them if they were cooking or eating their evening meal.

Robin and Marie were lovely hosts and welcomed us into their home which is situated in a lovely area and was very convenient for us to meet up with family staying locally. The bed was very comfortable, the shower was good and everything was very clean.

Nothing - this stay is unique and off the beaten track. Recommend for those who like adventure.

Our stay with Robin and Marie exceeded expectations. Robin is a considerate host and made sure we had everything we needed right from the point of booking to checking out. We dined with Robin, Marie and their other guest in the evening and had a delicious two course meal. They even made a special plate for my five year old daughter. Highly recommended.

Tea or Coffee facilities available in the room would be a welcoming bonus.

Everything. Robin and Marie are amazing hosts, nothing was to much trouble. Fantastic scenery/views. Comfortable bed and a nice breakfast.

Unclear entrance.

Perfect place for people who are not picky. Location wasn't clear enough... However we were around the neighborhood, somehow I guessed the entrance. Balloons are supposed to wait for us. The House and garden like from fairy tales. Sweet welcome. Everything was shown by host. Clear , straight to the point communication. No misunderstanding. Amazing dinner can be arranged. Excellent red wine added to the meal. An excellent escape from the city and crowd. Close to the nature. Rabbits, deer can be seen. Beautiful bird songs around the area. Very nice spotless room. Comfortable bed. Nice shower/ bath.(2 in one). Personalized bathroom. Polite, funny, positive vibe hosts. Amazing much needed experience in general. It is different ( in a good way).

Nothing

Robin and Marie were incredibly hospitable. I lived in the village for 25 years, although surprisingly we had not met before. It was fab to catch up on things that have been going on in the area. The house was easy to find, opposite Gatton Manor, the room was great because it was on the ground floor (ideal if you have a heavy case), the location very peaceful. If I am staying in the area again I would definitely stay again, incredible value for money, and great company!

Nothing, everything great.

Beautiful quiet location, welcoming hosts. Very comfortable bed. We took up Robins offer of the meal and enjoyed dining with them al fresco, beautifully cooked and birthday candles in the Pavlova.

It would have been nice to have had tea and coffee making facilities in the room.

Very welcoming hosts, lovely quiet setting and a nice breakfast.

Being from Yorkshire and being renound for our tea drinking. The sleeping facilities could have done with the addition of tea or coffee facilities. We did find the evening meal very nice and good quality with a friendly chat with the hosts and other guest. This made us feel right at home and was a very personal touch. Thanks for this. Having a chance to reflect on our stay, we did think the evening meal was slightly over priced but this did not spoil our stay.

Robin & Marie were absolutely brilliant. We would highly recommend a stay with them. Their hospitality was second to none. Off the beaten track and was just the place to relax and unwind. We will definitely be going back. Well done Robin and Marie.

Nothing. Nothing negative to write here. (Well, the only quibble is that extra pillows would have been good.)

The location was well placed for us to see friends in nearby Cranleigh. It was also a beautiful, secluded location. The hosts were extremely welcoming and helpful. We both had a great night's sleep.

I wished we could have stayed longer - Robin is a most interesting host with a great store of anecdotes and hilarious sense of humour.

Robin's property is a little piece of paradise - set in the most beautiful countryside but with access to the lovely counties of Surrey and Sussex and with fields teaming with wildlife and birdsong - it is an extraordinary place to stay. Ensuite bedroom was charming and breakfast was gorgeous and Rosie the cat is amazing - she almost talks.

Situation

Peatumiskuupäev: mai 2025

A kettle in the room with a choice of teas and coffees would have been appreciated and maybe some individually wrapped biscuits. The shower head is fixed to the wall and impractical to use. Overall a nice experience.

Great location. A lovely house in the countryside. Robin is a nice host. The room is spacious and modern. The bed is comfortable. Very relaxing atmosphere.

Clean, comfortable and beautiful location

I don't think there is anything I would change. Maybe an extra room so I could bring my whole family down?

The breakfast was amazing, a full english breakfast with fresh goose eggs, seated outside watching the deer walk past. The venue was ideally located for access to the places we needed to be. It was also really nice to unwind a bit. Robin is a fantastic host. There is also a great sculpture garden within walking distance down the lane.

The property was beautiful, set in a woodland location, just as pictured. We enjoyed walking through the public pathways, chatting to the locals and driving around for a few days exploring the area. We were able to walk to the local pub for dinner one evening, with our torch! Breakfasts were able to be eaten outside due to the stunning weather and we especially enjoyed the fresh goose egg.

it was a bit of a puzzle to find the place, but then again, we were not in a hurry and like puzzles!

A wonderful stay at Robin's house in wonderful surroundings. Robin is a wonderful host who accomodated us in every way possible. Breakfast was made to our liking, and I even had a fresh goose egg for breakfast!

Location and beautiful interiors

Quirky Surrounded by countryside

No complaints really.

The cottage was very cute! I expected it to be cold as we were visiting in the winter, but our room had floor heating and we were very comfortable. The English breakfast was delicious with fresh eggs. I would recommend also booking the dinner as an extra. Robin is a good cook and we shared a nice bottle of red wine together while swapping some travel stories. Please say hi to the cat Rosie if you visit.
