Cottage is fantastic, everything you need for a cosy week. Very peaceful and quiet, which is what hubby and I needed. Slept extremely well which is something I don’t normally do. Unfortunately for us the two local pubs were not open, but we found the “Brown Cow” which was very good value for money and we would highly recommend it.

Well appointed bungalow set in a farming area accessed by narrow farm roads. The close is narrow and parking awkward, my advice would be to reverse in.We returned home early because of the really adverse weather we endured which limited the scope of what we could do? Will visit the area again and hope for better weather next time?
