We had a brilliant stay at this property and would not hesitate to come back. The farm staff were very friendly and helpful, the local village was quiet and picturesque, and there was lots of lovely places to walk the dog. The cottage was clean and comfortable and had absolutely everything we needed. We are already looking forward to coming back.
