Lovely cottage, beautiful quiet spot, surround by trees, next to farmhouse. run by same people as campsite nearby by river, so can get gate code from them (as I had mobility scooter) , or go over style . It’s a lovely walk right next to house. And other paths , had everything we needed. Would definitely stay again

Jenny the host was really helpful prior to my stay and post stay. Lovely quiet location near to some lovely places to visit. I loved the enclosed parking, it meant I could let my dog off lead, knowing he'd be safe. There were a few small issues but these were addressed with Jenny, and rectified. I would definitely go back again.
