Mr Levi May 2014
Wonderfully secluded and quiet, not a sound to be heard but the birds. Would like to visit again.
Mrs Merton September 2013
We were spot on with our choice. The pub next door was excellent for food & great people too. If you need to use your mobile phone a lot then this village is not for you....no reception anywhere. The WiFi signal tripped out & we worked out that if we took our devices to the bathrooms then we got reconnected, so not really a problem in the long run. We would love to go back there as it is a good base & the cottage was perfect....
