We had a lovely break. The cottage was so lovely, surrounded by beautiful views and so quiet. My children loved seeing the animals and being on a farm. The cottage was so clean and well equipped. There isn't anything in walking distance so you do need to drive to the village for supplies but that is what we wanted. The owners were so welcoming and friendly. If you want a peaceful, comfortable break away I would highly recommend staying here. Thank you!
