Summary: So peaceful .away from the madding crowds. In the heart of nature yet close to lovely friendly pub doing great vegan food. The stiperstones. A shop like alladins cave and not a rip off!. Wonderful walks. Hosts gave us total privacy in there lovely digs sat on the balcony listening to a myriad of beautiful bird song. Would recommend to nature lovers everywhere.!
