The grassy hillside garden provides a peaceful retreat, making the property an ideal base for work in the area, a short B&B break, or longer B&B or self-catering holidays.

Rates:

From £75 per person per night for single occupancy, including breakfast.
From £100 per room per night for two people sharing, including breakfast.
