Dogs love the garden at Quarry House and walks are accessible direct from the property.

Quarry House has been renovated to provide comfortable home from home holiday accommodation. The house has been equipped with all the facilities that we would find in our own home. We hope our guests will enjoy Quarry House as much as we do.
