We booked the cottage for a week in May and we had the best time, we have a 2 year old and a 8 week old and our toddler loved the cottage, there was so much room for her to run about and explore and she loved seeing the cows and sheep every day. We have already booked for next year and I’m sure we’ll have just as much fun but with two kids walking about and playing. We can’t wait to go back.

We had a very relaxing time in the cottage. It was clean, comfortable and spacious. Loads of wardrobe space and a great shower with piping hot water. It was a delight to watch the lambs playing in the field in front of the house. We had the chance to get in beside the lambs in the shed for some lamb cuddles and we felt very welcome on the farm. It is a very peaceful location and we'd love to come back.
