This is a large property perfect for family or friend groups. Lovely area but there is a working farm next door Garden is secure if you take animals.

Patio door very difficult to lock , which the owner Read moreis addressing , hot tub was lovely. If you want a nice relaxing place to stay as a group this would be ideal. Hide

Wow what an amazing property, it suited our family perfectly. Mat the owner met us on arrival and explained everything and if we needed anything he was so helpful. The children loved seeing the goats and chickens everyday, local supermarket and Chinese that delivered was a bonus. Cant wait to come back and stay again
