This beautiful 200-year-old stone house has big beautiful bathrooms that complement the light, stylish chambers. The two upstairs doubles are lovely and the downstairs double is huge with a super-king-sized bed – it could sleep four! There are numerous little extras and prices are very fair for this high standard. Breakfast is recommended, with locally sourced produce.
