Room was very nice and quiet, as it had a separate entrance to the rest of the house. Clean and tidy, although the bed was not the best. Breakfast was LUSH! Friendly hosts, sheep in the garden were fun :) and 5 minutes away from the Monkey Sanctuary, which was brilliant! Would definitely recommend.

Completely agree with all the reviews! We stayed for 3 nights in the Dairy room, which is a great size; there was plenty of room when we had a night in watching a DVD. Breakfast was excellent and more food than we could eat. Jules and Graham are really friendly and their help and information with planing day trips and... More

Stayed for a few days midweek jn february to have a break. Jules and Graham were great, let us settle in then Graham came and suggested some great spots for dinner (we choose the local pub which was fab!). He also assisted in a plan for the next day too, as not local it was great to have the insiders... More

Warm welcome, top notch breakfasts with a good choice of options, great advice on places to visit and pubs which were wonderful but that we would never have found by ourselves. We struggled with our bed - the slats creaked every time one of us turned over thus waking us both up! We were in the Haybarn which adjoins the... More
