Had a very enjoyable stay. Visiting our son at university. He was able to visit for home cooked Sunday lunch and see us and the dogs. Great property and facilities. Perfect and lovely and warm.

As soon as we walked into this property we felt at home.
As soon as we walked into this property we felt at home. It is so spacious and comfortable with lots of books, games and a very secure big garden if you needed to relax. We only have one dog, but we loved it caters for up to three with two big extra dog baskets, bowls and sofa throws. So very thoughtful. The downstairs bed was huge and we had the best night's sleep. The facilities are excellent and there is plenty of crockery and cutlery. The area is very quiet but there are great eating places nearby. We would highly recommend this place and thank the owners for making it so welcoming.
