Absolutely perfect stay! Lovely little welcome basket, lots of places to go and see nearby but also nicely tucked away from everything. We really enjoyed the peace and quiet and amazing thunderstorms that we could listen to in the bedroom. And when sat outside we had some sheep visitors. Lots of DVDs and books available.Very clean and beautifully decorated, we are excited to return!
