Nature

Enjoy nature on the doorstep with a wealth of flora and fauna throughout the year.

Working farm

We are on a small riverside farm with hay meadows, horses, sheep, cows, and hens. 

Local farmers also graze their livestock on our fields.

Walks

There are plenty of short and long walks, or cycle routes from our doorstep, taking in wonderful views. 

​

The Byre is now closed for business

After 30 years of welcoming guests, The Byre is now closing to adapted for family to live in.

​

We would like to thank our guests for all the years they have been coming and the friendly feedback they have given us along the way.

​

We hope to see you in our new property, Nuthatch, which opened in 2022.  Please see link above for more details.

Beautiful skies

If the conditions are right, we have beautiful skies when the sun sets.

On a clear night, the stars and planets are spectacular.

Dogs welcome

Dogs need holidays too!

As a rule of thumb, we welcome up to 2 medium sized dogs at no extra charge.

Feel free to call and discuss.
