Watching the cows coming back from milking as you cleaned your teeth, being introduced to the sheep dogs and spending the evening following the house martens and swallows as they darted overhead were real highlights

The main bedroom was spacious with a nice bath tub and more than enough room to put up a travel cot. Owners were really friendly too would definitely recommend to friends and family
