Warm cosy Mountain Home
From the moment we walked in the fire was roaring and felt so cosy and warm, plenty of room for all of us (9 of us, with children ranging from 17-3) with lots of extra blankets and everything we needed. Will definitely book again.

Lovely large rustic chalet
We stayed 2 nights in August. Excellent communication with owner. Great large living area with cost wood fire that was going when we arrived. Impressed with owner collecting our recycling rubbish, too. Well equipped kitchen. Electric blankets in all beds. Loud trains at night x2-4 but only lasted a few seconds. Definitely would recommend this place.

Great Stay
Great Location if you like the rural scene but only a few minutes drive from the town centre. Got everything you need and the host Wayne was very helpful. I’d stay here again.
