They say it’s not a working farm but there crops on the fields and sheep near the house . The road up is not great it’s very steep and only found two places that are passing stops so if anyone comes down or up you would need to reverse back up or down as we found out a few times. The refuge bins could do with notices on them staying what bin to put paper. Vans . Plastic. As not on the bins . And a boot mat or box to put your muddy shoes in as wen you step right inside you only got a bit of a mat and we had to put our boots and shoes in bag not the best . And with them being on a septic tank a note in the bath above the toilet to remind guests not just a note in the book. A part from that it was very quiet and had everything you would need .
