This was a well equipped cabin, in a quiet, peaceful setting, overlooking fields with horses. It had the added bonus of a private hot tub which was lovely. It was well located for getting about to see the wonderful surroundings and places of interest.We had some amazing days out and was so lucky with the weather.We will definitely return, everything was just perfect. Thank you.
