Me and my partner stayed for a weekend break here for some downtime away from the hustle and bustle of daily life. What a lovely location it was quiet and peaceful with lovely views over the valley. Greg greeted us with some local cider and gave us an introduction to the house and information on the area. The house is so cosy and inviting we loved it straight away, of a night we would stand out on the patio and look up at the stars. The surrounding areas are lovely and quiet which was a nice change. The log fire and comfy sofas made a great evening of relaxation. It was great to end the trip with a conversation to Greg and Sarah and listen to the history of the project they had started. We will definitely return. Thanks for a welcoming and comfortable stay
