    Exactly as described on your site, it has everything you need for a perfect holiday. It is beautifully furnished, and maintained to a very high standard, the beds are certainly the most comfortable we have slept in in a holiday cottage (and we have slept in many over the years). The location on a sheep farm could not be more perfect, it's hard to tear yourself away from the view, you can sit on the comfortable sofas and watch the new born lambs playing in the fields right at the bottom of the garden, or watch the constant stream of various birds coming to the feeders. This visit we were able watch six deer that came into one of the fields most mornings, a lovely sight! We love to walk down the lane or across the fields, the surrounding countryside is stunning, the whole place is a nature lovers paradise! The owners are two of the nicest people you could wish to meet, they both work extremely hard on their farm from early morning till late at night (even through the night this busy time of year on a sheep farm) and yet they are always cheerful and friendly, we never fail to be in awe of them!
