Lovely stay for 2 adults and 3 children. The only thing I would comment on, and it is a small thing, is that the top three stairs creak incredibly loudly. If you have light sleepers, it could cause an issue. Otherwise, the house is perfectly equipped in every aspect. Peaceful location, beautiful area and very short driving distances to all the local attractions. As an aside, very few takeaways deliver here. We would definitely stay again!

A very comfortable and well equipped property. The rear garden was fully enclosed and escape proof for our Dog which gives peace of mind. Forest on the door step which was great. We will return to Humbug House in the future. Thanks for a nice holiday!
