We had such a lovely time at this cottage! The location is absolutely stunningand it had everything we needed - hot tub, BBQ, comfy bedsand spotlessly clean. We especially appreciated the little touches like hairdryers, towelsand games. Even with the rain pouring most of the weekend, it didn't dampen our spirits. Truly a fantastic getaway for friends and family!

Elsie

We had such a lovely stay at this quirky little cottage! The farm itself is really interesting, especially during lambing season - it's quite a sight. The surrounding countryside is perfect for walking, running, or just snapping photos. The shepherds were super friendly, always happy to chat and answer questions from the kids, which they loved. We also enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub and playing table tennis in the barn, which was like a mini-games room. Honestly, you could easily spend the whole week here, but there's plenty nearby to see too. Definitely a 5-star spot!

Honestly, it was a lovely placeand we'd definitely recommend it. Diolch!
