Mr Ebbett
Fabulous location with great views of the countryside and the animals. We loved watching the horses grazing and being exercised with Meg the dog. Apartment very cosy with good kitchen and bathrooms. Helpful and friendly owners on site.

This is not a five star property. Beautiful location with easy parking. Bright and usable kitchen area . Nice dining area, though chairs were replaced during our stay. Excellent television, but the sofas/ settees had a tear in the covering, and were worn and very uncomfortable. Bedrooms were well-furnished, though, beds were not entirely comfortable for us . Black mould in the shower rooms needed attention, but there was ample hot water and nice towels . Yet, we enjoyed the locality and its many interesting attractions.
