Great week! Lots to see and do in this area. Lovely walks and of course we had this lovely cottage to come back to every evening. Carol & Jeff were very welcoming and Jeff is full of knowledge for walks and trails. We will certainly be back.

We have had a great break in the barn – everything we needed and more. Jeff’s guide for walkers and his tips on the best bits of the walk to see, plus recommendations for eating out were especially useful.
