    Asked about: Two-Bedroom Mill Cottage (Cottage 3) • Answered on July 15, 2020
  • Hello , i love the look of your stable and barn accomopdation for myself, my grown up daughter and my dog for this weekend, my only concern, is the proximity of livestock, my dog has a high drive for cattle and sheep, and i am deperate to relax for a couple of days, please advise, regards Lizandra

    Hi, I'm afraid the Stables don't accept pets but 1 and 2 Mill Cottages do? There are fields behind us but no livestock in them, the nearest cattle/sheep are about 1/2 mile away in enclosed fields and there are horses in the adjoining field to us.

  • Is WiFi available in the rooms or just in public areas?

    Wifi is in all the cottages and in the games room. Phone signal is not good (we are in a valley) but depending on the make/model you can use 'Wifi calling' to use your phone as you would normally.
