The bed is so comfortable and the bedroom itself is fresh and modern. A lovely room walk into. The owners are on hand if needed (we didn't need for anything) and they gave us use of their beautiful Meadow which our greyhound LOVED and made fab use of her free zooming. Fabulous quiet spot with stunning views and walks. Thank you for our lovely stay.
