Summary: The house was spotless and filled with everything you can think of and then more. Extra towels, linens anything else needed. The grounds are well kept. Every morning someone could be seen cleaning any leaves from the pool. The house is filled with games and all different sizes of bicycles. All on acres of private property adjacent to a conservatory park.

Summary: This property is very near to the entrance to the precoius town of Oxford on Maryland's Eastern Shore. We were blown away by the view when we entered Bonfield Manor. The view onto Boone Creek is beautiful, as are the grounds, outbuildings, hardscape and the pool! The house is full of architectural beauty and charm with modern renovations of the bathrooms and kitchen and a broad porch across the whole back of the house looking out over the lawn to the water. The layout was perfect for our family. Marianne was very responsive when we had a few questions. I'd highly recommend this property and hope to return some day.

Summary: House and pool, grounds, and dock on river were terrific. Availability of canoes, kayaks, paddle boards was great. Pool was large and well maintained. Grounds in back facing the river were large, open , accessible for throwing a ball for a catch and playing croquet. Outdoor chairs were well positioned for sunning or sitting in the shade of one of the large trees to read. Outdoor gas grill by the pool next to 2 tables for dining was great for burgers and hot dogs night.The view from the porch looking out to the river was beautiful.

Summary: My family enjoyed an outstanding week here. It was so wonderful that before the week was out, we reserved the house for a week next summer! We are a multi-generational group ranging from 2 years old up to 70, and the house and amenities worked for all of us. The house is spacious, well stocked and spotless. Its setting and grounds are beautiful, and we enjoyed all the amenities, swimming daily, canoeing, crabbing, playing croquet and badminton, too. We grilled out several times and always had our dinner on the lovely waterfront patio.

Summary: This was our second visit to Bonfield Manor. The home is beautifully maintained and has plenty of dishes, household supplies and games. We had fun canoeing, swimming, playing crochet and badminton. We had several cook outs. The caretaker on the property was perfect. There was no need to go off the premises for other activities. WIFI worked well.

Summary: Bonfield Manor is a beautiful, welcoming home as described in its listing and confirmed by the many 5 star reviews. We all agreed with everything already written. A few things we especially enjoyed included reading about the history of the estate and playing the piano which sounded great! We watched old home movies from the 1950s and '60s on the DVD player which was so nostalgic. We all loved playing "no strike out" softball on the spacious yard as well as hide n' seek outdoors. Our group did a geo cache on the provided bikes in Oxford followed by lunches at local restaurants. Did I mention the not to be missed Scottish Highland Creamery which is on Maryland's official Ice Cream Trail? Yum! The friendly and helpful caretaker was an added bonus. Every morning we would see the caretaker checking on the pool. She let us know when the pool would be serviced and when the lawn would be cut. It was nice getting to know her. As they say in my western Pa. hometown, "A good time was had by all." We thank the owner for opening her beautiful house to us for our annual family vacation.

Summary: This house was absolutely perfect for our family The layout of the house, everyone had their own space and bedrooms were very comfortable. A beautiful library of books, which we used in the evening after kids were in bed. The grounds and the pool, dock, kayaks, and every space was ideal. We will definitely return!

Summary: The house and property were absolutely beautiful! We enjoyed swimming in the pool, going out on the kayaks and paddle boards and bike riding into the quaint town of Oxford. We truly enjoyed our stay at Bonfield Manor and would love to come back again!

Summary: The house and grounds are wonderful. All the bedrooms were well appointed and very comfortable. The common spaces were very generous and very well appointed to make you feel right at home. The kitchen had everything we could have wanted and more. Pool, dock and yard were great for gathering and games - wish we could have stayed a month! Will definitely stay here again.
