| Previous Visitors' Comments | The place was ideal for us and our 2 year old - the accommodation was perfect and felt like home from home. The location was exactly what we wanted - peaceful, plenty of countryside but within fairly easy reach of amenities and places of interest. The owners were friendly and very considerate; we'd recommend this place in an instant. We really missed it when we left and hope to make another visit.
