Review:

Tucked away on the farm, the caravan and supporting cabin were private, secluded and perfectly appointed.

The facilities provided were everything that we needed (piping hot water, bath, shower, fridge, microwave, toaster, radio and woodburning stove) - simplicity to perfection.

Everything spotlessly clean and in perfect working order - and romantic!

 
Specifically Recommend: Unique, romantic rustic hideaway...

Local Gems:
We did not stir from this perfect spot, except to walk around the meadows and woods.
 
En Route:
We came direct from Bristol and needed no stops.
 
Sum It Up: Idyllic - a little piece of heaven.

Please note: The caravan is perfect for two but one child up to around age 5 would also be welcome. The cabin sofa bed is more suitable for two children rather than a further two adults.

One very well behaved dog welcome, but only in the cabin (not caravan). Note that there are sheep in neighbouring fields and a (friendly) male labrador lives on the farm.
