10 of us stayed over a long weekend and we all had a fantastic time! The house looks like the photos and the hosts instructions on how to find it were very clear. Beautiful area, was really nice waking up to birds singing and cows mooing! The house is close to lots of walks which was what we spent most of the time doing! It was very affordable too, I would recommend this place :)
