This is a truly wonderful and magical place to stay. We had such a comfortable and restful time. Victor was really welcoming and helpful, he left us plenty of space to do our own thing and still was around to answer any of our questions on the locality and places to visit. We arrived to a gorgeous fire in the wood stove, and felt so cared for. The cottage is perfect to hang out or to cook in, to share a bottle of wine and to relax in by the fireside. We cooked a lovely meal and had a great sleep in such a comfy bed. It was so nice to wake and be surrounded by the magical woodland and beautifully restored and thatched buildings that make up Victor's place. It's like a real step back in time. We went for gorgeous walks in the woodland and loved the sense of magic and wildlife around each corner. I would highly recommend this restored barn as a place to come and write, take a retreat or just restore your spirit. We did some exploring of the town and walked along the river but mostly we had all we needed right there at Victor's to get the time out and restorative break we were after. I will definitely be back and next time I'll be staying for longer. Thanks Victor!
