Everything finished to a high standard and well maintained. Good outside space for our dog although not entirely secure. Very quiet location in a small village but within easy reach of local towns and attractions.

"The Smithy was a lovely, clean, cosy and comfortable place to stay."
A home away from home minus the clutter. A relaxing and quiet place to stay to recuperate from a major surgery.
