Words from the Wilderness
H - Stayed in August 2024
"I can highly recommend The Avington estate to stay at. Fabulous for family get togethers and couples retreats. We had the most amazing time.
...
We went for a walk around the stunning setting and ride on the free bikes and rowed on the river. We then came back and sat in the garden and cooked a BBQ and lit the fire pit. We were there for only 24hrs and would have stayed another night but all booked up. So we are now planning our next trip back and hope to stay in the house with the pool with some friends. Highly recommend and everyone we met walking around just looked so chilled and happy. So happy we have found you."
