Is The Nest Right For You?

Discover why this cottage is ideal for different types of visitors

For Families
The Nest sleeps two adults only and is best suited to couples. The farm setting has sheep, horses and pygmy goats nearby which younger visitors would enjoy seeing. However the hut has no bunk beds or extra sleeping space so it is not designed for families with children.
For Couples
The Nest is built for two. A king-size bed, a hot tub for two, a firepit overlooking the valley and two village pubs within walking distance make it a strong choice for a romantic break. One guest celebrated a 60th birthday here and said it didn't disappoint. Visiting spa treatments can also be arranged on site.
Pet Friendly
One well-behaved dog or two small dogs are welcome with a small additional charge. Dogs must stay off the furniture and be kept on leads outside due to farm livestock. Cogden National Trust beach, around seven miles away, is open for dog walking all year round.
