We had a very enjoyable stay at Hillside. It was very clean, well-equipped, tastefully decorated and in beautiful surroundings. We made use of the hot tub every day. One of the highlights of our stay was seeing the stars on a clear night. Janice and Derek were excellent hosts. We had a very good meal at The Cock Inn nearby.
