Stunning Little Barn Cosy and very comfortable barn for the 2 of us and the pooch. Everything we needed was there to use . Spotlessly clean , compact kitchen ( not that we cooked very much) but ideal for a quick tea after long days walking in the forest. Loved the apple juice and Welsh cakes on arrival and even treats for the dog. Communication andRead more location details were excellent and Anne and Andy greeted us on arrival. Close by if we needed. Thanks we shall come again Hide

Great little cottage. Perfect for us and our two dogs. Only downside was there wasn't really anywhere to let them off the lead nearby even though surrounded by fields. Great location and very well equipped. Only 10-15 mins drive to get to many of the local points of interest. Lots of gog friends places to visit.

Comfy cottage thats pretty easy to find. Well kitted out kitchenette, and comfy furniture. Heating was okay, though it was cold when we arrived. Shower pressure is very low and need to go through cold porch to get to it. Carpets could do with a clean. Check in/out times are not very forgiving
