    We were really happy with our holiday. We stayed for 7 nights and all had a lovely holiday. would recommend.

  • Sara

    Just a couple of pointers that would make the next person's stay even better. A hanging space in the downstairs bedroom would be handy, also a stool/seat in the wet room. The drive was also a bit tricky and our car wheels got stuck a couple of times in the gravel.

  • Rodney

    The adjoining campsite and facilities were a boon, not a downside at all.. our children enjoyed feeding the chickens too.
