The creak of a farmhouse door, the scent of a proper cooked breakfast drifting upstairs, and the kind of quiet you only get in proper countryside — Clifton Cottage is the sort of place where you wake up genuinely rested.

This one suits couples after a cosy bolt-hole or solo travellers who prefer four walls and a decent mattress to canvas. There's a camping pod if you fancy something in between, and the main guest house delivers traditional B&B comfort without the fuss. Worth asking about dogs if you've got one in tow — they're often welcome, but it's best to check ahead.

It's open year-round, so works for winter retreats as much as summer breaks. Campfires are a maybe — have a word when you arrive. Facilities aren't shouted about, but you're getting a proper bed, a warm welcome, and the kind of breakfast that sets you up for a day on the hills or pottering around local villages. Honest, homely, and refreshingly unpretentious.
