Little garden was ideal for our dog to have early morning and late night wee, but there is a large field for a decent run with him. Only one small criticism, the main bedroom has a glass door to the outside with no key. There is no window to let in fresh air and the room smelled a little musty. The smell ...

    Contained everything we could want for our stay and was tastefully furnished. Host popped in to show us how TV worked and to set the heating. They had also left a welcome pack of items. Little garden was ideal for our dog to have early morning and late night wee, but there is a large field for a decent run with him. Only one small criticism, the main bedroom has a glass door to the outside with no key. There is no window to let in fresh air and the room smelled a little musty. The smell diminished once we had heated the room. It would not deter us from returning and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay, Thank you to our hosts.
