This group of young heifers have enjoyed the sunnier days! They look the picture of health outside with the sun on their backs and all that lush grass to eat!

They will come and say hello if you walk down past their gate!!

Did you know we welcome well behaved dogs into our cottages? 🐾

Both cottages are great for dogs too but The Barn goes the extra mile as it has a “dog room”! Perfect space for 3 dogs maximum to keep those muddy paws contained!!
