The hot tub was lovely - luckily we had nice weather so were able to make use of it. Beds very comfy and lots of tech. Plenty of space inside and out. It's also in a fab location, loved seeing the steam train come and go. The pub just round the corner is lovely, too. We can't wait to return!

Property is really well laid out and a comfortable, light space to be in. Lovely welcoming hamper from the friendly and helpful owners. Hot tub was great. Excellent location (ie beautiful area on doorstep and good access to other beautiful areas and attractions nearby, near to a couple cafes etc, but not so near to grocery shops as we expected). Great for off-road/fell running. Will definitely be returning.
