Beautiful cottage with stunning views. Safe, enclosed garden if you want to take your dogs. We left our gate open so the resident dogs could visit us when they pleased. Julie is the perfect host, welcoming and just a phone call away if you need anything. Fascinating tour around the farm on request. We will definitely be returning.

The cottage itself is in the most beautiful surroundings. Provided you accept its on a farm and comes with farm smells you get the most wonderful views and (allowing for the building work which wasnt all day) peace and quiet. Its simply stunning.
