. The facilities and maintenance of them are very good and make for a comfortable and cosy stay. There is an excellent central heating system plus a log burner. The owner ( Caroline and husband Trevor) are willing to share time and local knowledge if you request anything or to leave you alone to explore. The location is ideal for travelling to lots of places of interest that are within reach of an hours drive in any direction.

We really appreciated the coal and firewood and made use of these. The furniture was in good condition and there was plenty of storage. The kitchen was good and had everything we needed. The coffee machine was good to have. It was also good to have some books and games-I haven't seen Journey Through Europe since about 1987 so that brought back some good memories! The owner was on hand and was very friendly and helpful too.
