Comfortable, lovely stay

Comfortable and lovely stay here. Would recommend! The fire was already built for us so arriving on a crisp winter’s afternoon that was a nice touch. Rooms are loaded with heaters and blankets and warm options. Well appointed kitchen and homely decoration. Thank you Kerrie
