We had an amazing Christmas week here, the children loved feeding the horses, the barn is lovely and spacious we had 10 people in our party and there was plenty of room for everyone. The owner is great who is happy to help if needed. We enjoyed it that much we’ve booked again for next Christmas.

The cottage was absolutely perfect! Loads of space and absolutely everything you could possibly need for a family retreat. Warm and cozy . Our host was very helpful and available if needed. Sadly we didn't get to feed the horses, the weather wasn't kind to us but gave us a very good reason to go back.

Had a lovely time at the cottage excellent facilities could do with some new mattresses as they were very soft and a bit lumpy but overall a great stay
