Wonderful stay
We really enjoyed our weekend here in early April. The cottage is attractive, comfortable, and in a beautiful, secluded spot. The highlight for us was interacting with the lambs, including bottle-feeding a few of them. Kirsty and Alan really made us feel welcome on the farm. (Tip: Don't use the postcode in google maps--it took us to a similar set of cottages nearby.)
