THE OWNER SAYS:
We have been at Penny Royal for nearly 40 years and enjoyed the quiet peace in this lovely valley with stunning countryside views. Tonight, we can see the cows and horses enjoying the evening sunshine. The rare disappointment has been a deer eating our roses - some would say how wonderful for them to visit you! Bird life and nature abound here and when the leaves have gone we can see the sea ! August 2024.
