Good place to stay close to a working farm. But slightly out of the way though. Rooms were good and breakfast was excellent.

We stayed at this lovely guest house as it was close to a wedding venue we were attending. It was in such a lovely quiet location. Rooms were comfortable and clean and had all the amenities you needed. Staff were very friendly and the breakfast was lovely. We wished we had stayed for another night 😁

This place is really off the beaten track and therefore very quiet and peaceful. It is a working farm, so flyscreens on the open windows were welcome. It was a short drive to the local pub for dinner and watch the football.
