Having been totally renovated, Drovers Cottage offers tasteful and well-presented accommodation, and is within easy walking distance to the quaint thatched-roof village, with its shop, beautiful church and two pubs serving good food.  This picturesque village is steeped in history, it has a bronze burial in the parish, which dates back to 2000BC.  The village . . .
