The old Milking Parlour was lovely, just what we wanted, nice and quiet and secluded. But only a short drive from Weksh mountains. The accommodation was done to a high standard and very tasteful decor. Lucy, the owner, was very friendly and welcoming. Would highly recommend this to anyone wanting a nice relaxing break.
