We stayed here on 26th May 2024 and was met with the owners ferocious dog running free to attack our dog..Despite asking the owner to keep him tethered the next morning my partner took our dog for a walk on her lead and was viciously attacked by the owners dog running loose again. My partner was desperatel trying to keep our dog safe and tried to grab the other dog to keep him away from our dog. The dog dragged him to the gravel path causing his right arm to be cut and bleed profusely. His knuckles were so torn and bloody it looked as though he had been in a boxing match.. His scars didn't heal for several weeks. The owner apologised, however, be warned, this place is NOT dog friendly. Jan Taylor

Spend a night in a medieval museum. An amazing place complete with a very nice breakfast served by fireside in a 300 year old room.

A run down 15th century farm that graduated to being a fort. It is in the process of renovation (owners been at it for over 20 years), so has a run down feel to it. It is cute and with a bit of imagination and eye for how the peasents lived it can be very interesting.

A beautiful castle, full of history. It is in the middle of a very rustic village. Truly a wonderful location to spend a weekend on.
