Had a wonderful two night stay at The Old Butchers shop. The property was just as we had hoped plenty of room, beds comfortable. Everything we needed provided for us. Very quick response from Emma the host, when we needed her (couldn’t work out the heating soon sorted though) My 3.5year old grandson loved chasing around the rooms, and tye garden. Definitely need a car to get around. We didn’t have time to check if the TV worked far too busy playing games. I would highly recommend this property and wouldn’t think twice about revisiting. Thank you again host Emma
