Such a lovely place, spacious and very clean. Worth noting that the garden has been updated since these photos were taken, there's now some lovely steps and a gate so that you get a better view of the alpacas. For anyone else that's got a small dog that's a flight risk like ours, it's no longer quite the secure back garden these photos show but eveRead morerything that's been done is an improvement for normal guests!

This was a fabulous family holiday home which had everything 3 children and I needed. The scones and biscuits on arrival were much appreciated, as was the entertainment provided by the alpacas next door. The owners were approachable, helpful and friendly. We were at most an hour from anywhere we wanted to explore. Highly recommended.
