A huge thankyou to Sarah,Mike and the family for taking time out to chat and the cake and scones even though you are constantly on the go with the farm. The area is so peaceful and the perfect place to use as a base to explore the area but relax of an evening time. You couldnât want for more with plenty there if the weather is not the best. Thankyou for everything and we will be back again without doubt. 5 star plus.

The cottage is 1st class, and perfect setting for a relaxing holiday, waking to the sound of birds singing and sheep and lambs bleating. I give this cottage and owners
