A great place to escape; so peaceful with all you could need - not disturbed by the pub. Long walks from the door and only a short drive to access the best of the Beacons. Really thoughtful gifts and nice touches in the kitchen - milk, tea, coffee, clingfilm etc. Plenty of space for our 3 dogs. Comfortable beds and quality towels. Would return.
