Lovely cottage, in a beautiful setting. It is in a remote location, but for most that will be part of its appeal.

A spacious and comfortable property with lovely views across the valley to the hills from the conservatory style dining room. There are no shops or other amenities in the immediate area but this adds to the "getaway" feel of the holiday. We would definitely come again and have no reservation in recommending this cottage, especially for those seeking a walking/nature based break.

The long house is a beautiful place for a relaxing holiday I don’t think many places would beat the views from the conservatory. We saw red kites whilst eating our breakfast what a wonderful experience. Bedrooms are all very comfortable, not sure why they have not made the ground floor into the master as it’s crying out for this. We had a problem with the microwave and it was replaced that same evening can’t thank them enough for their swift action. Only criticism is the tv is far too small for such a big room
