Lovely property to stay in with beautiful views of the countryside all around. It is warm, clean and nicely decorated. The king-size bed is very comfortable, as is the sitting room area. The owners are very nice. It would not be suitable for people with mobility problems as there are stairs leading up to the property.

The accommodation is lovely. However it didnt quite work for us, as the open plan nature meant our dogs woke us in the night, and the garden was not accessible by just opening the door of the accommodation, it required you being with the dogs as you had to take them out of the door and open a gate to take them into the garden. The area outside the Read moredoor was not secure, and used by many vehicles. Hide
