Lovely homely place to stay. So relaxing and quiet, just what we needed.Everything you need, books, videos etc. Really enjoyed our stay. Poor cubicle shower, fridge too small and no direct access for our dog to the land at the back. Lack of places to walk our German Shepherd. But really worth it for the peace and quiet. Very nice owners. Tasty welcome pack .
