    Quiet and peaceful location, facilities to accommodate all we needed. A great escape from busy lives with open views, surrounded by farmland and the antics of the animals and birds. Hosts actively trying to encourage wildlife, and rightly taking joy in their successes. Hosts were very helpful, giving the benefit of local knowledge when asked, and very friendly. They have developed the site over a number of years, and their thoughtfulness shows. The local pub is no longer functional, so be aware that if your plans are to eat out you will have to travel a little further.
