It was in a lovely location and easy to get to interesting places to visit. Our only issue was the size of the bed, It was a double bed as stated but seemed really small to us as we normally sleep in a super king size bed, The bed was comfortable but people who usually sleep in a bigger bed like us also may have the same difficulty as us, The owner of the property who lives adjacent was very friendly and helpful

Friendly and engaging host. Plenty of space, especially the roomy living room. Enjoyed staying at a working farm and meeting the four legged residents added to our enjoyment.

We were lucky enough to be there at Easter during lambing season were surrounded by lambs and their nursing ewes. The farm is very dog friendly with plenty of hills around to walk up. We'll definitely be making an effort to return there.
