Lovely cottage, beautiful location. If you’re planning on cooking for more than 5 or 6 you’ll be a bit short of crockery and cutlery etc. The super location and spacious house made up for it though x

We had an amazing stay at Stonebank House. The home was spotles, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed for a comfortable visit. The location was perfect, peaceful, convenient, and close to local attractions. Check-in was smooth, communication was excellent, and the hosts were thoughtful and welcoming. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!
