You should know

• Up to two dogs are permitted by prior arrangement with the host - restrictions apply.
• Well behaved dogs will be permitted by prior arrangement only and at the owner’s discretion. Dogs are not permitted in the main area of the house due to the cream carpet, though they are permitted in the kitchen, play room and two of the bedrooms accessed from the second staircase. Dogs may be “off lead”, however, they must be under your control at all times. This is due to the horses and wildlife that roam the estate.
• The owners ask that you clean up after your dogs and put any waste in the bins provided and that you do not leave any dogs unattended in the property if they are likely to cause damage, unless you have an appropriate dog crate where they can be left safely.
• The pool is heated from 27th May - 1st October. The owners endeavour to maintain a comfortable pool temperature, however, please take into consideration that the pool is an exceptionally large volume of water which is significantly influenced by the great British weather. For the summer 2022 season the owners found the temperature ranged from 24 – 30 degrees.
• Cot and highchair available.
• There are no parties allowed and the owners ask that you do not make excessive noise. There are also no large, single sex groups allowed.
• No fireworks, sky lanterns or drones.
• Eastwoods shares the site with prestigious Eastwoods Equestrian. Eastwoods Equestrian produce high quality horses of distinction for the international show jumping circuit.
