We had a marvellous stay at the Woodshed.
We had a marvellous stay at the Woodshed. It was such a warm welcome in this complete, beautiful and cosy accomodiation. We were so fortunaty to be able to book this one day in advance, because our other 7 day location reservation fell through because it was under construction when we arrived. We were at a loss, but Sally and her wonderful house made everything more then better. There are lot of interesting sites in the area if you come by car. Shops are a bit further in town, since the location is very rural. This is part of the charm. We bought eggs at a neighbouring farm.We would definitely recommend the Woodshed!
