We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Horse Box. The property and its location are both beautiful. The cottage has been renovated to a very high standard and was immaculately clean. It’s very well equipped and we were very grateful for the little extra touches. The king size bed was extremely comfortable and the large shower was lovely. We were lucky enough to have some beautiful evenings and sitting on the bench watching the sun set was lovely. The views are amazing. We will definitely be back.
