Thank you very much for letting us stay for 2 nights at short notice. Lovely family to welcome us and chat to. Everywhere was spotlessly clean with everything you need and the cottage was warm and cozy. Beautiful village with a nice pub and lots of lovely countryside walks to enjoy. We really enjoyed our stay and can definitely recommend booking The Old Dairy. Best wishes, Sue and Andy
