Nothing but praise, amazing rural location which was perfect for the dogs with walks from the door, beautiful decor, comfortable furniture, super comfy beds and fully equipped with everything we needed. Great hosts on hand when needed but in no way intrusive. Highly recommend and we are looking forward to coming back in the future.

I could quite happily live there! It was literally a last minute booking and so was a bit of a gamble but luck was on my side on this occasion. It was comfortable and homely with a modern twist belying it's exterior looks. Quiet with dog walking routes available on the door step. I only have praise for it and the owners. Jon was on hand when needed and was both helpful and knowledgeable about the local area. I'd never have known about the Spitfire wing weights that were looking at me every day had he not told me. Will definitely be going back.
