I love hosting guests who all have a different story and personalities that make up the world. I am always happy to help in whatever way I can to make your stay with me as enjoyable as possible. I do my best to greet guests personally although a key lock is located outside the entrance door, just in case or for late check in. I interact with guests as much or as little as they like. I try to be as flexible as possible with check-in/check-out times and will do my best to accommodate guests’ requirements. Any questions please do not hesitate to contact me. I love living in the countryside and the country lifestyle. I consider the place I live as a little piece of heaven, I am very lucky to live here and enjoy everything and the challenges it brings with it. My family are my passion and my life. Not far behind are my animals, I have always been involved with animals. In my leisure time I train and compete Border Collie sheepdogs and help to look after horses on the livery yard which is adjacent to the B & B. I look forward to hosting each new guest and welcoming back returning guests.
