All 4 generations had a fabulous holiday in the old dairy. It is perfect for a large family holiday and with plenty to do both inside and out it is great for anytime of year.There are lots of nice little touches throughout the house that make it feel very welcoming. There is also a chalkboard with local information ranging from local taxis to playgrounds for the children and walks, pubs and eateries in between.James, Mark and their team are all very friendly and welcoming.Will definitely book again.
