The ancient timbers are beautiful. Unfortunately it is very close to the busy A40 which marred the stay slightly and there are 20+ steps from the car park to the front door so you' ll need your hiking boots!

The bed was very comfortable and it had a great shower. The hosts were very friendly and unobtrusive. The kitchen had everything you needed. All in all a lovely break. Ruth and Mike
