A lovely old farmhouse in an interesting location, it had everything we needed. A pub, ruined castle and river a short walk away but no shops or phone signal. Wi-Fi works well. Gardens were secure enough for our German Shepherd. We would love to stay again sometime.

Great location surrounded by rolling landscapes, castles and rivers. Local pub close, pleasant and friendly although we didn't try the food. House is close to the village with walks in most directions so also very dog friendly. Plenty of space in the house, bedrooms good, showers good, bath lovely. Kitchen Ok, you'll get your steps in walking to and from the fridge (quite small) and dishwasher! Delightful garden room with great views, would be good to have a couple more chairs or larger sofas in there. Recommend it.
