We enjoyed our short stay - comfortable beds, superb having two bathrooms, warm and welcoming and the view from kitchen window was lovely. Nice location down a quiet lane and a 12/15 min drive to M&S and Tesco. We will return to explore the area which we didnt have time to do on this visit.

Fabulous location with great views of the countryside and the animals. We loved watching the horses grazing and being exercised with Meg the dog. Apartment very cosy with good kitchen and bathrooms. Helpful and friendly owners on site.

This is not a five star property. Beautiful location with easy parking. Bright and usable kitchen area . Nice dining area, though chairs were replaced during our stay. Excellent television, but the sofas/ settees had a tear in the covering, and were worn and very uncomfortable. Bedrooms were well-furnished, though, beds were not entirely comfortaRead moreble for us . Black mould in the shower rooms needed attention, but there was ample hot water and nice towels . Yet, we enjoyed the locality and its many interesting attractions. Hide
