“Perfect cottage”
We enjoyed a week in the hay barn with three kids. It has been just perfect! The house is beautifully decorated and fully equipped with all you could need. The breakfast in the open kitchen and the evenings in the garden with the field views and the birds sound are priceless. The kids enjoyed the climbing frame, the chickens and the garden. Carmel has been really kind and helpful though our stay. We will definitely come back!

“Very enjoyable”
Carmel and Jason couldn't have been more welcoming and hospitable.The property was very well suited to our party, we had two small children , there was great freedom for them to move around and burn up energy. The property is although rural and peaceful is well located and close to shops etc. We found the people of the locality very friendly and welcoming The weather was extremely warm. The bedrooms could have done with some air con or ventilation at night time.
