Gweneth is lovely and will go out of her way to help you. She delivered fresh eggs to our door for breakfast and made sure we were comfortable and warm in the cottage. Our for 4 dogs loved it! We were worried as one of them can be quite vocal but it was no problem at all and they were made to feel welcome too. We were even offered 2 empty enclosed fields to run the girls in which was great! The farm is down a long track and the views are spectacular! There are also 4 gorgeous donkeys on the farm Itâs safe to say we will be back for a 3rd time very soon. Thanks for looking after us

So peaceful and has beautiful views. Itâs really like home from home. Love seeing the cows and donkeys, always happy to greet you. There is always someone around the farm to help if needed, or they pop buy in passing to check if you need anything. Lovely welcome tray very much appreciated. Will definitely be back soon as had a wonderful time as usual.
