Host profile image
Hello and welcome to our place. We are a family of 6 and enjoy being outside in the countryside, beaches, swimming, paddle boarding and so much more. We run a successful open water swimming business in the UK. Our place is a work in progress as it is a 16th century farm house. So always lots of work to do keeping it looking lovely.

We offer two self conatined properties - The Barn, sleeping 4 and The Cottage, sleeping 7. This is the perfect location for families to come and enjoy a private and peaceful holiday.
