Kieran was an exceptional host. The cottage was a picture perfect stay. Fresh flowers, comfy beds, and two warm fire places. The grounds are so expansive for those walks in the morning. Lovely host. Would definitely recommend. Happy Holidays. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

A great location and property to get away from it all. We did a few walks but mainly read books by the fire or outside and wound down.
