I can highly recommend the Larches. The house itself, has the most relaxing atmosphere enabling us to chill straight away. It has everything needed to have a relaxing stay.We were staying there during the recent heatwave. By leaving the lounge windows. patio doors and utility room door open, it created a lovely breeze for us and cool spots for our dog to stay cool.It is in a really wonderful location with views over hills and fields all around.We are looking forward to a return visit.

Location was great very peaceful and surrounded my sheep, garden was well maintained. The inside of the house was a bit confused. The kitchen and upstairs bathroom were both modern but the bedrooms especially the carpet were very dated. Good space for functionality just had a mismatched finish.Lots of the beds creaked even if you just moved one limb which made moving or getting in and out of bed with a sleeping baby a bit difficult but we managed for a long weekend. Kitchen well equipped, had a bottle of wine and crisps on the counter for arrival! Wasn’t an issue for us but we couldn’t get the TV to work when we tried.
