My second visit to the Milking Parlour which is perfect for me and my two dogs. So comfortable with everything I need. The hosts always on hand with help and advice about the area, walks and local amenities. Had Sunday lunch at The Manor Hotel which was superb. A holiday that can be as energetic or relaxing whichever you choose.Recommend without hesitation .
