We were very comfortable at Swallows Barn Cottage, which the owners had converted beautifully, equipped with everything we needed. The offroad parking was welcome as the road is busy. The cottage was warm, with efficient wifi. It was ideally placed for our needs - to visit a number of NT properties in the area.
