    Wonderful period property, really comfortable and full of charm. I particularly loved cooking in the well stocked kitchen which was full of herbs and spices, like home from home.

    For anyone looking for a cosy autumn/winter stay, this fits the bill perfectly! House was much bigger than we expected, very cute, cosy and clean. Really appreciated that the kitchen was stocked with a few condiments and things like cooking oil,...
