Just exceptional, beautiful location, very clean, we couldn’t have asked for anymore. So lovely to wake up in the morning to see chickens around the yard and cows from our window, perfect. The host was very friendly and made us feel at home. Ideal location but just far enough away to enjoy the gorgeous views. So much to do, we had an amazing week away and can’t wait to return next year
