Lovely secluded high-spec insulated cabin in a remote valley. Walks and Mitcheldean from the doorstep. Tea, coffee and hot chocolate provided. Spotlesly clean, you wouldn't gues dogs were allowed to stay! The steps were no isue at all and felt more like 25 than 50. Lovely fluffy towels and bedding.
