    We had a great stay with Catherine and Graham, their dogs were very happy to meet Basil our lucher. Tea on arrival and a lovely supper. Looking forward to visiting again. Catherine's traditional English Breakfast and Graham's bread were superb, making great toast. Our ensuite was also of equally high standard.

    Friendly lady advised they were doing coffees and breakfast items when permitting us to park in the field. Visited the shop and outside seating area later in the afternoon - expensive pork pies and scotch eggs only available in the shop, no fresh meat items. Outside seating is just a few rickety chairs in a corner of a scruffy farmyard. BBQ set up in a distant corner but not being used. Disappointing and a long way off the road up a pot holed track with on field parking which would be dreadful in wet conditions. Need to try harder if they want to attract any business.

    Such a tranquil place with just the sheep occasionally heard in the background. Need to spend more than one night here! And breakfast was wonderful with complete freedom to choose what and how much, all home made and home cooked. Finally some really helpful advice about feeding puppies, worked in 24 hours thank you once again. Rooms : 4/5 | Service : 5/5 | Location : 5/5 … More
