Reviews

The heating supply wasn’t great and the plumbing the cooker took a very long time to get to temperature but we had a great time

Ms Sheila R,

Large comfortable house with lots of living space to relax and enjoy. Surrounded by sheep and alpaca filled fields as it’s situated on a working farm. The owner is very accommodating and overall it was perfect for what we wanted.

mr Rachel S,
