the hosts were lovely very friendly and helpful, the farm was dog friendly for our two dogs.Unfortunately the accommodation was very tired and in need of some tlc. Do not think electrics would pass PAT testing or health and safety regulations (wires hanging down and extension leads did not look safe)All in need of a good overhaul and deep clean

A warm welcome was received at the Cottage. The family who owned the farm are very friendly and very helpful. The Cottage was spotless with lovely soft towels and lovely hot water for the shower and sinks. I had a fabulous week at this Cottage and I would come back at the drop of a hat. Thank you to you all.

It would be useful to have an information pack in the cottage, especially for Wi-Fi and cooker instructions.
