Fab place to stay, stayed here 2 times now and both times has been a really great family holiday. Very spacious property, with great views. Great links to visit places - Both in Scotland and England. A great place to stay if you want some peace and quiet with only some farm animals nearby - The cows we're very friendly at the bottom of the garden. Definitely recommend and will be staying here again!
