Everything you could possibly need is provided and Mark one of the owners was very welcoming and helpful. Unfortunately we didn't meet Adrian the other owner. The welcome pack was also very well received! We wouldn't hesitate in coming back here should we visit the area again.

Relaxing countryside walks at your doorstep and great hospitality by the owners. The welcome package was very generous and supplied every thing we wanted for the first night/ breakfast. I would highly recommend it for a peaceful break and definitely visit again!
