Frank is a wonderful host, and Lottie is the perfect poochie welcome, she is so gentle and a delight. The Granary is roomy, comfortable, homey and clean. The kitchen has everything you want. A home from home. The small enclosed garden is perfect for dogs and for sitting on the swing chair reading a good book with a cuppa. The stairs up to the Granary are steep and uneven, not great if you are unsteady on your feet, or have old dogs. The lanes to get to the Granary are very long and narrow, but with very little traffic. We will most definitely be back

It was in a lovely location and easy to get to interesting places to visit. Our only issue was the size of the bed, It was a double bed as stated but seemed really small to us as we normally sleep in a super king size bed, The bed was comfortable but people who usually sleep in a bigger bed like us also may have the same difficulty as us, The owner of the property who lives adjacent was very friendly and helpful
