Lovely stay in a beautiful house and location. Well equipped and cosy. The hosts are very accommodating. Lots of activities in the area. We ate at the local pub one evening and the food was great, staff are extremely welcoming. I would not hesitate to stay there again.

Great location with lots to do within a short drive. Great views from the house and it was well suited to our two families with a great layout. We'd happily go back.

We were a family group of 8 adults, with 2 dogs, and we had a lovely time at the Haybarn. It was a great location, central to many interesting places. The facilities were great. We had a fab time, and look forward to coming back.

All fantastic - my only non maximum score is whether we would go back again - it is a long way for us and we did go for a particular purpose that might not repeat itself in the future. But certainly were others to identify a trip to that part of the world I'd say this would be a brilliant base.

A nice big cottage ,great views and a lovely little local walk by waterfalls. Kitchen was amazingly well equipped and some great books and games in the library Fantastic garden Great to have loads of free wood for the firepit .
