My husband and I have just spent three nights at the Saucy Willow Inn, it was absolutely wonderful. The location is beautiful, the house is stunning and the welcome is second to none. Stephanie & Dave are extremely warm & welcoming hosts, very professional with a great eye for detail, nothing is too much trouble. We would have no hesitation in recommending this exceptional hotel to our family and friends and we look forward to returning for more rest and relaxation soon.

Stephanie and Dave were absolutely fabulous in giving us a tour of the property, making sure all of our needs were met and making sure we felt welcome. The Inn was nicely decorated, our bed super comfortable and the grounds were well looked after. They had just finished a new event space which looks lovely. We will 100 percent return and highly recommend staying here. There are also lots of things to do nearby.

Gorgeous property that I am glad I found. With last minute booking they were SUPER helpful and extraordinarily lovely. The room was great and we were at the back of the house so we had an excellent view of the water and the trees across were already changing colours. I will definitely be back. I cannot express how much I enjoyed my stay because I do not know enough English words haha. 10000000/10

Stephanie and Dave’s interactiveness, caring and extension of homely comforts at their inn was phenomenal. This was much needed whilst taking a break from the hustle and bustle of life. I was also impressed at the well oiled the operation. Thanks for the restful experience and the lovely sunshine.

Check in and never want to leave.

I am really reserved about giving Saucy Willow a review it deserves. My reason is purely selfish……….. I really don’t want people to know about this hidden gem. We did a last minute booking unfortunately only one night I wish it could have been longer. Every aspect of the stay was fantastic. The property the room the surrounding and most importantly the people. You could not have asked for a friendlier lot. We were made to feel welcome and like we were long time friends popping in to visit. It was such a nice experience. Thank you.

Charming getaway and lovely hosts. Relaxing location. Amazing room. One negative, Their main property says adults only. But cottages also on property had kids. Love kids but was looking forward to a quiet place with no kids running around. The adults only reason was was why we selected it. And laid that fee. It was disappointing to experience the noise when we were just looking to relax.
