This accommodation is linked to the owners house but this was not a problem. Nick and Mary were pleasant and unobtrusive. We were even gifted a lovely pot of jam and greenhouse tomatoes. You can walk or cycle straight into the forest. The cycle centre and the sculpture trail are 6 mins away in the car. There is a small paddock for dog walking whichRead more was well received by our 4 legged friends. It was roomy, maybe a little dated but had every thing we needed. It felt secure set back up a lane.
