We spent a lovely week in this superb bungalow, a return visit because we liked it so much, and would definitely recommend it.

A very well kept and clean cottage, in a beautiful setting. Quite close to local amenities, although narrow lanes on the drive in. A good network of footpaths to neighbouring villages. A very nice place to stay.
