A lovely, clean, well presented property. Spacious and well equipped. Will happily book again.

In the listing it mentions the low beams in the bedrooms and they are low, the bedroom floors creak a lot when going to the bathroom.

We stayed here over the Christmas period and it was everything we wanted picturesque, secluded but still has access to shops, a real quiet getaway with every attention to detail. Thank you Mary for making our stay wonderful.
