The clatter of the yard has long settled into something quieter — wood beams overhead, thick stone walls that hold the cool even on warm days, the kind of stillness you only get in old farm buildings turned cosy.
This one's for couples after a proper bed and a bit of comfort, or anyone who fancies sleeping in a camping pod with a roof that doesn't flap in the wind. Dogs are welcome by arrangement, so worth asking ahead if you're bringing one along. It's open all year, which makes it a solid shout for off-season escapes when most campsites have shuttered up.
Facilities aren't spelled out in detail, so it's worth checking what's onsite when you book — guest house setups vary. Campfires are a maybe, so ask when you arrive if you're hoping to sit out with a brew and some embers. The feel here is more about tucking in than roughing it, a dependable base with character rather than bells and whistles.
