The owners have meticulously renovated the Ironstone building to offer all the modern comforts. Breakfast provisions were left for us and the host brought firewood for the evening. The beds were new and incredibly comfortable with quality linen and pillows. The armchairs on the front balcony offered views of the cottage garden and the friendly sheep and Alpacas. All in all highly recommended and definitely for more than one night. 5/5 Star rating !!! ##### Karen P.
