There is public transport in the village which link with the local towns. We are also dog friendly - the garden is enclosed but due to layout and mixed style of fencing and walls, we cannot say it is secure. We do however request that you clear up after your dog and use the bin provided. Please can you let me know if you are bringing a dog as all guests get a welcome pack.
