Disgusting

Thus is the second review I have left as my first one has magically disappeared. Don't belive the reviews that say it's 5* and clean etc. They are not true. I have photographic evidence of the disgusting state of the house when we arrived after being told it had been cleaned! We had to leave and couldn't stay there. The description has been changed aswell as it wasn't written on the description that dogs couldnt be left unattended. That's been added after we have complained and we are still fighting for our money back. Owner very rude and now ignoring us

Amazing country break!

We stayed for 4 nights in the barn and had such an amazing time! The barn was clean and well stocked. Tracy the host was very friendly and accommodating to our needs. My daughter loved the garden and play area. There were lots of toys and play equipment available. We loved feeding the sheep and goats every day. There were so friendly. We would definitely return!
