We had a lovely break in this luxury pod.

We had a lovely break in this luxury pod. Warm and cosy with the welcoming hot tub and beautiful views of the surrounding countryside and Straiton monument on the hill. We received a lovely welcome gift or a few goodies and Elaine had spent all day getting the hot tub ready for our arrival. Heaven!! Easy 10 min walk into the village with a friendly community shop, well stocked and they were very welcoming. Hope to be back
