Lying in an idyllic position at the heart of an awe-inspiring National Park, the property offers spacious, airy and welcoming accommodation for up to nine guests.

What an amazing, magical holiday. The cottage was beautiful, and the views even more magical. We were looked after, and welcomed as soon as we arrived and made to feel part of the complex. We went out for some days, but could easily have stayed on site and enjoy the luxury of the cottage, the beauty of the scenery, and the wonderful venue. Being paRead morert of the lambing experience was something I'll never forget, amazing. Can't wait to go back - feels like home. Hide

Spacious, well equipped & maintained. Remote location great for walkers but expect a 30+ min drive to most attractions.

Had a wonderful holiday with great facilities. The owners were very helpful with info about restaurants etc. My sons loved the snooker table and the fact that TVs were in every bedroom. The only reason I haven't given a maximum score for equipment was that the shower chair could be updated to one with footplates and large wheels and the patio set Read morealso could be replaced with newer. Other than that, faultless. We would definitely return when possible. Hide
