Great place in a good location
The farmhouse is well set up and in a great location. The lounge is brilliant for having a group sit round and chat. Recommend the pub, a 5 Mon walk down the road.

Lovely house full of character
I stayed here just me and one of my dogs for a few nights for a working holiday - Big house just for one, but just the kind of place I wanted - Quiet, log burner, dog allowed, pub in walking distance... Full of features and plenty of comfort whilst retaining the original farm house feel. With having a dog with me, I would have preferred the garden to have been fully secure, but this wasn't too much of a big issue with just taking one dog. I was also a bit upset on arrival reading that dogs were only allowed on the ground floor, which ruled out my dog being allowed into the living room and this information was NOT provided prior to arrival - The information regarding dogs stated to agree to the rules in the guest information which is read on arrival and this was the first I knew that my dog would be restricted to the kitchen and dining room. I understand them not being allowed on sofas, but not at all being allowed in the living room was a bit of a shock. As a result I barely used the living room as I wasn't going to leave my dog alone downstairs for three nights and so I spent the majority of my stay just in the kitchen. As I usually have my partner and four dogs in total when I go away, I would not return here for this reason if I was to be coming away for a leisure holiday with dogs, but objectively if I was having a trip and it was just me, or my partner and me, then I would happily stay again. I don't want to make it sound like a bad place, as it was REALLY NICE and comfortable and had everything you could need staying away from home, I just don't think it is really set up properly to be properly classed as a "dog friendly" holiday home given the charge per dog and the situation with where in the property they can go. Some other points to note - Local pub a short walk from the house was lovely and had a nice ,meal there once night (dog friendly too). The owner Tony was very helpful and talked me through my arrival etc before hand and also checked that I had arrived OK and gained access. There are lots of notes all around the house with instructions on how to work things. Everything was functional and the bed I used was very comfy. There were some logs for the fires available when I got there, but then also large bags available to buy out the shed with an honesty pot - This was useful as it meant I wasn't having to go to places and lug logs about. Overall it is lovely place to stay, just not really with dogs with current rules.

Nice break but not perfect
Just back from hallflat cottages, had a largely really nice time. Positives The area is outrageously beautiful with loads of great things to do The local area is superb, and it’s a really blessing to have a great pub and fantastic cafe in such a remote part of the world The property is big, spacious and full of character. It has a lovely garden too. It was also clean when we arrived. All the applicances work fine and are clean, and there is Wi-Fi through the property (although it doesn’t quite reach the lounge) The owner was really helpful and easy to deal with throughout the booking process Negatives Whilst generally positive, what reduces the overall experience is the state of the interiors in the property. Whilst I understand that this is a very old property with lots of character, the general condition of decor and furniture isn’t good. It’s in desperate need of a refurb and it took the edge of the holiday to be honest. Carpets are threadbare in places. Walls and wallpaper are scuffed, torn, marked or poorly finished throughout. Beds and couches are uncomfortable and ready to be replaced, with springs felt on a number of them. There’s watermarks and what looks like damp patches on some ceilings. It’s a shame really, because it’s a fabulous base in a beautiful area but really could do with some modernising for sure.

Perfect location and amazingly comfortable and spacious house
We didn't travel more than 20 mins from the house as there was so much to see and do. The house was so spacious, clean and had everything we needed. We loved it.
