Every little detail had been thought of. We brought all our usual self-catering essentials for the kitchen but they werenât needed. The property was so well thought out and spacious too. It was so peaceful we didnât want to come home. To say itâs on a livestock farm, we didnât experience any animal noises or smells. We were chatting to another couple who were staying in one of the other properties and theyâve been returning to the farm every year, for years. I hope we get the chance to come back again. Thank you James & Julie for such a fantastic holiday property.

Lovely position, well equipped and helpful friendly owners. No wonder they have so many repeat bookings.
