    Lovely, clean, quiet and well equipped. Welcome pack was great. Really good communication from the hosts. Good base to explore the area - despite the weather. Managed to stream films on the wifi which was a bonus. Lovely to watch the Red Kites doing their thing. Douglas the host's dog came to say hi - he's lovely and friendly.
