It has a well equipped kitchen, quality towels & bed linen. Only the occasional farm vehicle passes by from the owner's farm so it's very quiet & peaceful. The lane is off the A49 so there is easy access to surrounding areas. Visited 2 nearby National Trust sites, Croft Castle & Berrington Hall. Hosts & family are very helpful and friendly and provide a good welcome pack of home made cake, wine & flowers plus kitchen towel & enough milk, tea, coffee & sugar to to get you started. Had a very enjoyable holiday.
