Miss Smith
Fantastic, warm, welcoming, cosy farmhouse with lots of space for our mixed group of family and friends. Had everything we needed, well equipped kitchen, plenty of logs for the fire, even a local cat who we were advised we could allow in the house only if we wanted to! Lots to see and do in the area. Would definitely visit again.
