    Niamh made everything welcoming and delightful! Afternoon tea was brilliant! Breakfast, amazing. And the view? So beautiful, peaceful, serene; like a retreat with no noise but the sheep in the pasture away from us. Beautiful drives and amazing...

    Wonderful property, great area to enjoy afternoon walk on their farm. The beds were great and rooms private and quiet. The included breakfast was the best of any of the cottages we stayed at. Owners friendly and engaging.
