Wonderful and friendly owners, with two beautiful dogs, cats and horses. It had everything you need for your stay, i would definitely recommend staying here. I know we will definitely be returning. Such beautiful sights, scenery and hosts. Wish we had a few more nights booked as the stay wasn't long enough. Thank you! Meg & Jack

The apartment was very clean and comfortable, with everything you could need for a short break. The stabled horses, with paddocks and extensive grounds were very special. A warm welcome from the families two black Labrador's Ivy & Sid, along with roaming Deer, Hares and pheasants are something we will remember. Our Labrador Bailey, especially enjoyed the early morning walks, through the top field and woodlands. All in all, a venue we would be happy to recommend.
