Summary: A beautifully done conversion with first class fixtures and fittings, you can absolutely feel the love and care that has been lavished on the property. The beds are wonderfully comfortable, the bathrooms are top notch, no complaints at all. The village and surrounding areas are picturesque and we can definitely recommend the pizzas from the Queens Head. Overall a lovely break despite the weather! Thank you Scott, Helen and family, the place is an absolute credit to you.
