We loved Buttercup Lodge. It's small but it has everything you need. The location is great. Lots to do and see within an easy drive, but always looked forward to coming back to base to enjoy the peace and quiet, looking out onto the buttercup meadow and seeing the swallows flitting about. Leslie, the owner is very friendly and helpful.
