This is a gorgeous property in a lovely location with all the equipment you would need for a lovely stay - a real home away from home. Underfloor heating on the ground floor bedrooms is lovely. Its so nice to see the animals around the property & a lovely view. Will definitely be back to explore the area more.

We stayed here the first weekend in December. The house was nothing but perfect for us.

The cottage is in a good location with easy access to main road. We bought bottled water as the water there wasn't very nice. The equipment in the kitchen was well used and needed cleaning or renewing. The bedrooms are downstairs so any movement in lounge or kitchen is heard, the wooden floors creaking.
