The cottage offers cosy and comfortable accommodation alongside The Farriers (ref UK39383). The Dairy is full of character boasting beautiful hand made features and tasteful décor throughout. On entering the property to your right along the corridor you’ll find the well-equipped kitchen, living and dining area. This space is the perfect communal area in which to unwind after a busy day exploring everything the island has to offer. The French doors lead you out to a private spacious garden that overlooks the farm’s fields, it’s a view not be missed! The Dairy has one shower room with a walk-in shower, a sink with a handmade vanity unit for storage and a heated towel rail. The master bedroom sleeps two guests in a kingsize bed and the second bedroom sleeps one further guest.
The location is perfect for cyclists, walkers, ramblers, runners and families and there is private access onto the old railway line from the farm. The track is part of the Red Squirrel Trail, a 32-mile trail around the island countryside. As well as this the old railway line has many footpaths and bridleways branching off it taking you on miles of off road routes. You really can get the best of both worlds here with the beach just a 5-minute drive away if you fancy a change of scenery. The farm is also on a bus route for guests staying without a car meaning you don’t miss out on a thing!

The Dairy is beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean. The enclosed garden is perfect for our two dogs, and we will definitely return. Abbie, the owner, is very friendly and helpful.

We had a great stay at the dairy . Garden was ideal for the dogs . Lots of of lively walks near by. Also lots of things to do within the area not to far to drive.

The only negative is that the driveway going up to the property was very bumpy, if you suffer with back problems it is not very good.So could really do with sorting out as not even good for the car.Apart from the driveway we had a really relaxing week and would highly recommend.
