We really enjoyed our time at the Secret Severn. The place was spotless and had everything we needed. The views of the Severn were absolutely stunning and made relaxing even better. The garden was a big plus-completely secure, so our dog loved running around freely. We also appreciated how private the patio and garden area were, perfect for unwinding with a glass of wine. Definitely a lovely spot!
