Our host Angie was very special and treated us beautifully. There was home made bread, butter, jam, milk, tea, coffee and beautifully wrapped local fudge.Angie even gave us a lift to a wedding at Owls Castle and picked us up at 11.30pm!The house was pristine and just right for our needs.

Lovely and quiet, the owners were lovely and showed my children the eclipse that happened during our stay through a welding mask and how to look at the eclipse using a colander and a sheet of paper, which they didn't have to do, the kids loved it, they also left us a gift of a large dog chew for out mastiff and a box of choices on our last day! Bless them, would definitely recommend this place. 👌
