Ideal for a small family. We took our 6 month old grand daughter and everything was provided for her. Felt very safe even with Covid 19!! All rules were followed to keep us safe.

We had the most amazing week here in August. The accommodation is clean and comfortable and brilliantly located. Our young boys loved being on a working farm and delighted in tractor rides and playing with the resident dog. Everyone was so welcoming and engaging. The location is amazing with so much to do within a 30m drive. The memories will last us a life time and I’m sure we will be back.
