House was lovely and peaceful with brilliant gardens in a great location. The kitchen needed more mugs and plates and the knives needed sharpening. Overall a wonderful holiday and the property manager, Emilie, was easily contactable and helpful. We would return again.

Perfect for a weekend break with the three generations of family. Well equipped kitchen and a lovely big garden. Would recommend the Swan Inn where we had a lovely meal and it's only a 15 minute walk.
