This was a wonderful find - great location and great property. Clean, very well equipped and a big comfortable bed. We enjoyed giving carrots to the horses too! Will come back again as it was so good.

The cottage was clean and modern with rustic touches. We were greeted with fresh milk, eggs and some treats too. The farm where the cottage was situated was peaceful and friendly. Everything was up to standard.
