Reducing fire risk

We're asking all guests to please avoid using any woodburner or open fire in cottages at this time, as sparks escaping from the flue may lead to wildfire due to the current dry conditions in the surrounding land. Thank you for helping us do whatever we can to reduce the risk of wildfire.

Treat yourself to a comfortable home from home at the end of a day exploring this iconic trail, whether you need a cosy spot for one or two, or a large house - or neighbouring houses - for friends walking together.
