It is spacious and beautifully furnished. The outside eating area is a joy to use as the views across the fields are wonderful. A perfect place to sit and chill out. We came away at the end of our week feeling very relaxed. Thank you Sara and Ozgur.

Set in some beautiful countryside the views and peacefulness was outstanding. The hosts were superb and they greeted and showed us all the ins and outs on arrival. Among other things, we were even left some home made cake which was a lovely touch. The Shippon was immaculately clean and tidy and suited our needs perfectly, the hot tub too was a lovely bonus. We would highly recommend this place as a definite go to destination.
