Entry is under an arched porch way into the very comfortable sitting room, beautifully furnished to the highest of standards. The country-style kitchen has plenty of character and has been beautifully equipped to meet all your culinary needs, with the dining area making it a very sociable space. Each bedroom is tastefully appointed, one with an en-suite and one with an additional day bed, allowing flexibility for sleeping arrangements. To the rear, five steps lead up to a private lawned garden which has fine views over fields; a delightful spot in which to relax and soak up the sun.

The property is just lovely, very tasteful farmhouse/ cottage country vibe with bags of style. Very comfortable and in a fantastic location. Beautiful scenery and walks from the property, all ending with a choice of great pubs!

Perfect place to stay with a large living room and well appointed kitchen downstairs and lots of space upstairs. Very cosy despite the cold outside. Highly recommended.
