Situated over two floors, there is an open plan living space on the first floor which allows you to enjoy fabulous views right across the river and dale. The kitchen area is well-equipped and well designed to make the most of the space on the first floor. The living area is comfortable and well furnished throughout.

Last minute decision to book.

Last minute decision to book. Everything we needed for a short stay. Location was good, very quiet, easy to find and negotiate our way through sheep field. No mobile phone signal, but landline available if needed. Not suitable for anyone with limited mobility due to stairs.
