Lovely week spent in this great location with our two young kids even though the weather wasn’t great - the kids loved seeing all the animals on the farm and the family were super helpful. Beautiful countryside and lots of things to do with kids a short drive away - although not much amenities in the village - only comment was that accommodation was a bit small for 4 of us and all our kids paraphernalia although it’s good value for money Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo
