Dark Orchard is a lovely little site - earlier reviews describe it perfectly so rather than repeat these I will just reinforce that the location is perfect; take care at the entrance and the owners are indeed very welcoming, friendly and approachable. Bookings are taken by Lynda & Chris whilst the main "meeter and greeter" is Peter - who has a fund of local knowldge and some very interesting stories. During our recent stay we enjoyed watching a pair of bluetits feeding their young in a nearby nesting box. We also found the site notice board contained useful local information and can recomend Sunday lunch at the nearby Pandy Inn, Dorstones. Dark Orchard is one of our favourite sites and we hope to be able to return in the future.
