Reviews

I had an amazing time. I went away for a quiet break just for a couple of days. I have a very busy work world in the NHS and felt I needed to get away. I didn’t feel the need for rushing about the countryside. The byre was lovely. Welcoming, clean, well equipped with instructions for using log burner but also central heating if, like me, you’re not familiar or brave with a log burner. The bed was so comfortable too. Equipment was lovely and clean too. Very cosy. The hosts although I didn’t meet them personally were wonderful and messaged back when I’d messaged. They checked everything was fine. I sensed if there had have been an issue they would have sorted it. I hope to go back and take husband and dogs next time. There’s a lake for fishing on site. There are many places to visit in and around the area although I stayed put. Thank you so much for a lovely stay

Previous Customer,

Heather and James were welcoming and helpful. The cottage was very dog friendly and our dog had great fun. A very relaxing week.
