    We love it so much that I'm frightened to write too positive a review in case it becomes too popular...!! it goes someway when after two years the property looks every bit as good as the day we walked into it on our first visit. Great location, great set up, and spotlessly clean, what more is there to say?

  • Erica

    Comfortable, clean, well maintained. If I had to be picky, the front garden was quite overgrown. It was difficult to walk up the front path as overgrown with plants etc, also the parking space so overgrown got soaked trying to get in the car or get to the bins. The weather was very rainy which didn’t help the situation.

  • Donna

    Warm and cosy with log fire. Perfectly located for scenic countryside walks with a pub very close by serving delicious food. Highly recommend.
