“Fantastic location, wonderful hospitality, superb accommodation. The extra touches such as the Xmas hamper in the barn which included Xmas headbands, games and jokes, the dog baskets with treats, towels & toys & the welcome hampers in each cottage, plus the clean, well equipped playbarn made this a perfect Xmas break.”

“We arrived there on Christmas eve and the hosts were amazing: they made us feel so loved and it felt like home. Everything was very well thought through, with nice finishing touches and even little gifts. The location is great, with Thor’s cave close by and we were able to go on so many different walks. We would definitely come again and we strongly recommend to everyone:)”
