We had eveything we needed, including a welcome basket that provided us with breakfast. The local village store has freezers packed with delicious meals for one/two/four people and we could not believe the selection of items it stocks. The owners are so friendly and helpful, thank you very much. Fantastic break, shame we couldn't stay longer.

It was so nice to have a welcome pack on arrival, including butter and milk in the fridge. Oodles of room and very comfy seating. Good car parking and the owners had left a very helpful note telling visitors to leave by the bottom gate, away from the more difficult exit on a bend. The owners, Andrew and Amanda couldnât have been more welcoming or helpful. We had a wonderful week relaxing, visiting various landmarks, watching the wildlife (amazing red kites) and laughing at the âfamilyâ of beautiful, feral puss cats who congregated outside the farmhouse door each morning waiting for breakfast to be served. All in all, a super break.
