Fantastic stay at this beautiful property for a friends 40th. It had everything we needed, we can’t wait to return.

Great house for a group get together. Lovely and warm and very spacious. Really well equipped with all the requirements we needed for a family break for new year. Great location quiet and rural but with loads to do in the local area. Great walking from the door especially the Mosaic Trail from the door.
