We had a lovely time at Augusta House. Bryce was very helpful when we booked the holiday, and everyone on the estate was friendly, from the cleaners to the security personnel.
The pictures are a little dated now, and the rushes and trees have grown, which means the views are slightly restricted when sitting on the decking, but its fine from standing. Don't let this put you off, it means that the area has matured and is teaming with wildlife: waterbirds, housemartins (4 nests on the house while we were there); bats; butterflies; dragonfies, rabbits and watervoles etc.
There is plenty to do for everyone. We played tennis, went swimming and pond dipping with the children almost everyday.
Our oldest boy (11 years) went waterboarding at a school a few minutes drive away, and the local pubs serve excellent food.
We would love to go back to Lower Mill Estate and Augusta House.
