WI-FI Internet access.

As with everything at La Mare Chappey's holiday accommodation, it has been designed to be “child friendly” and safe, with a secure patio area - so no little escapes! The traditional stable door is ideal for letting in a cooling breeze, but again the little ones are secure with the bottom being closed.

Apart from having the freedom to roam and explore the five acres of private land which makes up the La Mare Chappey estate, guests staying at River Cottage have their own secluded patio area  - equipped with tables and chairs for 6, barbecue and outside lighting.

Wonderful during the day when all that can be heard is the trickling of the water in the nearby river and its accompanying wildlife, and totally relaxing during those balmy evenings for an alfresco meal or bottle of wine with friends and family...  Better still, great for mum and dad to unwind while the youngsters safely have fun in La Mare Chappey's activity fields.
