Molly the farm cat welcomed us back and she stayed with us again which was lovely. the farm drive needs some attention once the wet weather has gone so just drive slowly up the lane and you will be fine. Recommend a trip to alpes butchers by Lidl, fantastic meat and deli counter. We shall be back next year.

Lovely rural location was thoroughly enjoyed by our young son, as was the resident cat (not for everyone but he enjoyed it). The hosts couldn't have been more accommodating and willing to help. All in all, a great little cottage and we'd have no hesitation to come back again.
