Q: What do you provide?

A: When you stay in self-catering accommodation somewhere it's often difficult to know what you need to take with you.

There is also a complimentary washing machine and tumble dryer in the communal laundry as well as a chest freezer.

Q: What do you provide for children?

A: The barns and farm are a wonderful place for children.  Our grandchildren love spending time with the cows and roaming the countryside.  We have a climbing frame next to the barns and plenty of trees to climb in the woods.  We can provide a cot, highchair and potty as well as books and toys.  There is also a trike and a buggy that can cope with some "off road" action.  Please let us know what you need when you make your booking.

Q: Do you allow pets?

A: Well-trained dogs are welcome but please discuss with us first.  There will be an additional charge for each pet. See "Pet Friendly Holidays" for more information.
