About this property

Romantic Rural Retreat

Colourful and cosy. the Lodge is small but fabulous. A handmade double bed floats on a mezannine above the Cosy Sitting Room, with Log burning stove. The bathroom is romantic with a double ended claw foot tub in which to soak away tired muscles after walking around the beautiful valleys. The cottage has a character that is enhanced by the many special features, handpainted mural and unique style.

Back for the second time in a month which speaks volumes!

Small, cosy, quiet. Great food package left for us and loads of wood for the fire. Curtains would be nice. Alex, the host is charming.

Romantic cozy place to stay

Really impressed with our stay, nothing better than sitting in front of the fire playing games. Highly recommend. The sheep in the field were a real treat to view also.
