We found the Byre to be superbly comfortable and very well equipped. A very pleasant cottage with dedicated parking, plenty of grasslands to walk the dog and a wonderful welcome pack with eggs, bread and milk. There also tea bags and coffee provided. A fully enclosed patio with a bench for sitting out when warm. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would certainly consider a return trip in the future.

Definitely recommend The Byre. Super clean property and well stocked kitchen. Welcome pack was a bonus as not always provided these days. Ideal location for visiting the many market towns within a 1hr drive. Local pub The Three Horse Shoes is within walking distance or 2mins in the car. Great home cooking and very friendly staff.
