Beautiful view from a lovely property
This was our 2nd visit and we had started to wonder if maybe we’d just got caught up in holiday fever and rebooked in haste but as soon as we drove up the hill we remembered the magic! Julie is a fabulous host, nothing is too much trouble and the addition of an EV car charger was a super bonus. She has also added shower trays after I had mentioned them last time and there is now a little notebook for guests to comment if there are any suggestions for additions. The weather was glorious and the hot tub and view are the icing on the cake. We have already booked for next year!

Lovely family break.
The cottage was as described and depicted. It was cosy and comfortable with everything you would need. Beds were really comfortable, had good sleeps. The hot tub was incredible, amazing views and a real luxury.

A Fabulous break away
We had a wonderful 2 night stay, Julie was an amazing host and answered all my questions about the working dairy farm.
Julie let us work around the farm and see the cows and the calves.
Such a beautiful setting and so peaceful. We can’t wait to return.
