10/10 Excellent

"Our family only stayed one night but it was lovely. Super comfortable beds, well stocked kitchen and a great view of the surrounding countryside. The breakfast supplies provided (fresh farm eggs, bread, homemade jams) were also great, especially as the location is somewhat remote. Definitely a great place to stop if you are exploring the area."
