Had a 4 day mini break at Skylark, and what a wonderful time we had. The Shepherds Hut was delightful and was well equipped with everything you need for a mini break, the bed was extremely comfy and the hot tub and the fire pit were both just the job to relax in the evenings. We had a walk into the village where we visited Rubys award winning fish Read moreand chip shop this is a Must! You won't be disappointed the fish was superb! Roger and Jane were the perfect hosts, they couldn't do enough for us! Hide
