We had a lovely stay at the cow shed, made full use of the facilities and enjoyed the location as a central point to go off exploring the local area. Hosts were friendly and accommodating and the space was peaceful and ideally located for getting around the local attractions. Thank you for a pleasant stay

Weekend with friends

We loved our stay in The Cowshed. It has been beautifully refurbished to a very high standard with everything you need for a relaxing break. The hot tub after a day walking in the hills was amazing! Thank you Justin and Christine. We hope to see you again soon.

The Dairy at Christmas 2023

This property is outstanding. Absolutely superb views are the first thing that can't be missed. Inside the property is brand new and renovated based around the traditional farm building with characteristics and beams retained and exposed. Beautifully warm, high spec and everything you would want for a stay including a dishwasher and washing machine. Having two full bathrooms was fantastic and having one on the ground floor was also helpful when elderly visitors came. I would/will definately stay here again, it was very relaxing, quiet yet not remote, local facilities were very close and Waitrose a couple of miles away. Justin has been very accommodating and helpful and has put his heart and soul into the renovated farm buildings to great effect! I can highly, highly recommend! Brilliant!
