We booked a dog friendly chalet for a weeks family holiday. What a fantastic location and the chalet was excellent. We all thoroughly enjoyed our break. I cannot recommend highly enough.

Courtious and accomodating beyond belief! The owners provide a wonderful experience from the complimentary drink to the laundry service. We enjoyed Peter as much as his delicious breakfast and loved having a view of the horses from our room.

Dated decor and facilities in the main house. Unable to comment on the attached cottages. Was very disappointed after reading reviews on Google and TripAdvisor.
Breakfast room is bright and airy and breakfast was quite good.
