This place is a hidden gem. It has all the facilities needed for a relaxing holiday. A well catered for kitchen, comfy bed, lovely shower, large wall mounted TV and to top it all off a very generous welcome pack. We were given a lovely welcome by the owners Paul and Audra and were on hand if needed for help and advice. Also there's two donkeys and three Al Paca's in a paddock field close by who our dog loved. There's a lovely pub within a 10 minute walk who do lovely meals but only open Wednesday to Sunday. We highly recommend the old boot room for a relaxing, quiet break.
