Things To Note

Access to the farm and dairy is restricted; however, chat with the owners, and they would be happy to show you around and even have a go at milking the cows!
Parking for three cars + secure storage for bicycles.
A travel cot and a high chair are available on request.
Home shopping deliveries are available to this property.

Less than half a mile away is Cocklakes Farm Shop and Tea Room is well worth a visit for local produce of a bit to eat.

Lovely bungalow on a Dairy Farm. Big, spacious and clean with comfy beds and all the facilities required for a self catering stay. Felt like a home from home and was a very refreshing stay.
