A great flat with everything you need for a long weekend

All check in details were emailed promptly by the owner and we found the property easily. We had a long weekend stay for a festival in the area and it made it very easy to travel to it each day. A great flat, nice lounge and comfy bed. Lovely self catering space

A charming property in a beautiful location — A repeat review for a repeat stay :)

A repeat of my earlier review to prove I genuinely did like it so much that I booked a second week!!!!An absolutely charming property in a beautiful location. We feel so fortunate to have stayed here — and indeed liked it so much we extended our stay! The barn conversion is stunning. The interior design is the perfect marriage of form and function. And the hosts are incredibly kind and helpful. This is the perfect country retreat if you want to curl up with a book by a log fire. The kitchen is a delight to cook in — and there's Ingham's Farm Shop nearby for deluxe supplies! And there's lots to do in the surrounding area for those seeking adventure. This is an absolute hidden gem. Would highly recommend.
