A beautiful property in a lovely and tranquil location. Everything you could ever need in a holiday home was provided with every possible contingency covered. All the rooms were well equipped and comfortable and the sofas on the landing/gallery were a bonus. The utility room would be useful for walkers and dog owners and the enclosed rear garden was a bonus. We really enjoyed our stay at The Old Cow Shed and while we explored the area extensively we know there is still so much more to enjoy and we’d be more than happy to come back in the future.
