Self Catering Barn Cottages
Our self-catering holiday cottages were formerly part of the old farm's outbuildings and are located in the old courtyard. They have been tastefully converted and retain much of their former features such as exposed stone walls and exposed beams, providing comfortable accommodation.
In all cottages we provide a 20" colour TV with a video recorder and as many videofilms that you have time to watch. All the cottages have access to wireless broadband. The cottages have been comfortably furnished and are centrally heated throughout. Don't just take our word for it see what some of our guests have said; comments books. In 2011 just short of 15% of our visitors were returning guests so we guess we must be getting somethings right!
