Weve just returned back from a wonderful week @ Plas Robin Rural Retreats. We stayed in shepherds rest with our dog. The place itself was stunning and finished to a very high spec - it felt totally luxurious. The location is brilliant with lots of walks close by, cute pubs with great food in the town and a lot to do within a short driving distance. The hosts were so welcoming and went above & beyond throughout. We are already looking at dates for our return visit! Highly recommend.
