Lovely, comfortable cottage, enjoyed by all. On a working farm but it was so quiet and peaceful. Surrounded by gorgeous countryside where we watched the red squirrel running around the garden. Could do with updating some of the fencing and gate to make it more dog proof but other than that a good time was had by all.

This is a beautifully appointed cottage in a lovely location. The farm is quiet and the area is pleasant. The owners provide all that is needed on arrival. We enjoyed the peaceful location with a nice garden filled with birdsong. This was a lovely location for our short break and is one of the nicest cottages we have rented over the years.
