Peaceful getaway
I went there to find peace and tranquillity and found it in spades. Lovely clean and well appointed cottage, nothing you need has been forgotten and if it isn't there you don't need it. Beautiful valley side setting with veiws and Red Kites flying over. My only regret is i wasn't there long enough but now I've found it i will return.

Long weekend away
From the moment we got to the property we were very excited about the accommodation, hot tub and gorgeous views. Just a short drive from where we live for a long weekend away and it was exactly what we needed!
