"This a unique property, very cosy and peaceful. It was exactly as advertised and very charming with a well presented modern attached bathroom.

Sadly due to the cloud cover we did not get to see the night sky but on a clear night anyone keen on stargazing will have a great view. We would highly recommend the Tobacco Kiln for those who like...
