Staying with Poppy and Graham is like staying with the most loving grandparents who pamper you, share their wisdom and are so interested in your life. Poppy is a very good cook, working with local fresh produce and lots of love. We could not have wished for a better stay!

A really enjoyable, all too short, visit. Uplands is an oasis of calm and tranquillity. The gardens were stunning and the hospitality outstanding. A fine wine accompanied our dinner, and both it and the conversation flowed... I slept better than for some time!
