Beautiful pastures, lovely views, quiet location. We loved feeding the chickens and alpacas, getting some doggie loving while away from our own. Coo Shed is more spacious than expected with plenty of drawers and hangers to store your clothes. Thank you for a fabulous stay in the countryside!

Renee,
It was our pleasure to host and meet you all, and thank you for the kind words. I hope the rest of your holiday was amazing!
Kindest regards,
Colene
We loved the rural setting with the animals but what really made this rental stand out above the rest was Colene, the owner. You can tell it isn’t just a business for her. She wants her guests to enjoy their stay. She allowed us to check in early, brought us fresh eggs from the farm and let our family feed the animals!

Lesley,
Thank you so much for the very kind review.
It was our pleasure to host you all and hope the rest of your holiday was amazing.
Kindest regards,
Colene
It was just as it said on the tin, was so relaxing and peaceful and a village just a minute away if you needed anything, would definitely rent again and the landlord leaving you to get on with it but just a call away if needed, would highly recommend it and will be, all round excellence 😊
We really enjoyed staying here, it was fully equipped for us. The kids enjoyed meeting the horses and the alpacas. Lovely hosts who were very friendly and helpful
We had a fantastic 4 days. The 'Coo Shed' was clean, cosy, well equipped and in a great setting. Would definitely recommend, especially for small families. The outside space, and welcome from the alpacas and chickens was a bonus.
Immaculate and extremely well located for the purpose of our visit.
Colene made us very welcome and our two girls 6 and 9 just loved being with the horses and dogs on the farm.
We wouldn't hesitate to recommend this property.
What can I say fabulous stay in a mega clean, beautiful cosy cottage. The host couldn’t do any more for us and situation in a perfect area. We had a lovely rest and my wife a fab birthday.
