We had a lovely few nights here over Christmas. The house is in a fabulous location with gorgeous views, so we saw some lovely sunrises. When we arrived we were greeted by the sheep in a neighbouring field. It would be a fantastic place to stay in summer with a nice garden to sit out in. The house itself was perfect for the two of us. It was nicely decorated with some lovely touches added for Christmas. It was immaculately clean. When we needed to ask the hosts a question they responded quickly and were friendly. The beds and chairs were comfortable and the shower was great. Hopefully we will be able to stay again soon!
