Mannacott Farm
Amazing location, excellent pub very close, although the walk back up the hill would not be suitable for those who struggle with hills! WiFi signal is a little patchy, particularly as there is no phone signal in the area - could do with a little booster. Other than that, we had a great time during May half term and the weather was fantastic!
