It is situated in a great place within easy reach of the towns and villages in the area. A really peaceful and secluded spot with beautiful views and we loved the log burning stove and hot tub. Logs where available from the owners by phone and dropped off promptly along with glorious tasty farm eggs all at a reasonable price. I would describe the accommodation as cosy comfortable and well fitted out will all one needs. Parking is secure and easy.

! I would 100% recommend booking here if you're thinking about it. It's perfect size place nice and cosy without being cramped! It has everything you need in there for cooking in, a coffee machine and a nice fire place and tv with all the good apps like Netflix. The hot tub is also lush and only takes an hour or so to heat up. The garden is nice and big with great views and the sky is lush in the mornings. It's also in a great location with lots nearby. I specially liked the book the hosts left with every bit of information you need in it for whatever you want to do! We brought our dog so loved the page on all the good walks nearby. The hosts themselves are lovely people, very friendly and helpful. Deffo book it!!!
