Sonia United Kingdom

The room was immaculate and spacious with everything we needed and the hosts were very helpful

Anonymous United Kingdom

An excellent stay yet again. Perfect for me all round. Nothing is a problem for the hosts. Stunning views across the valley

Andrew United Kingdom

Excellent accomodation. Great location for my work

Andrew United Kingdom

Perfect accommodation with great views from the back garden.

Jane United Kingdom

Although we had requested a double bed room via Booking.com, we were shown to a twin bed room by a member of staff. However before we moved our things in, the landlord noticed and immediately moved us to a much better room: twin beds already pushed together to make a huge comfy double bed, at the back of the property with stunning views and a terrace to sit out on (if the weather had been better). All the staff were very attentive and friendly. The room was very quiet, large, with lots of storage space and also a lobby for shoes, a fridge and generous tea making facilities. The full English breakfast was large and tasty. Shower large and good. Soap was provided, you bring your own toiletries.

Julian United Kingdom

I did not have breakfast so can't comment. The room was well decorated and warm and I liked the large shower cubicle. Good selection of beverage. The view was superb across the valley and to be able to park right outside was a bonus. My dog was comfy too.

Christine United Kingdom

Lovely quiet little place in the middle of nowhere, Awesome scenery, will definitely stay there again, thank you
