The showmans carriage is a lovely place to stay. Negatives -There was some dust and cobwebs throughout. The kitchen is very basic and would be improved with a small air fryer (we brought our own) and the mattress dips in the middle. A blind on the kitchen is really needed.Positives - Overall though we had a lovely time, it's so peaceful and the log burner was great.Enjoyed some local walks and tried some of the nearby eateries
