A very enjoyable stay in a well equipped cottage. A comfortable armchair would be an added bonus and sadly there was no view of the beautiful surrounding countryside from inside or out.

The Old Milking Parlour is a beautiful cottage offering very well appointed modern accommodation for 3 people. It is well equipped and the owners were friendly and welcoming. Throughout our stay, the Wi-Fi behaved perfectly and we were always able to connect. It is set in a peaceful location but with plenty to do nearby. We will definitely visit again!
