Located in the peaceful village of Ruffside, Himmell is a cosy and welcoming holiday home in a stunning setting with plenty of fantastic walks right on your doorstep. Sleeping up to four guests, it’s the perfect getaway for families and groups of friends.

Also sharing this space is the kitchen and dining area. Perfect for socialising, you can prepare and enjoy meals with your loved ones easily. Shaker in style, the kitchen has light wooden cabinets and modern appliances. The dining area comes in the form of a breakfast bar with four chairs.

The property has two cosy bedrooms. The master bedroom has a comfy double bed with bedside drawers and lamps. Ideal for families, the second bedroom features twin beds.

Himmell’s family bathroom has white tiles and silver hardware so it has a very clean and sophisticated look. A shower WC, wash basin and a mirror complete the space.

Outside you’ll find a communal grassed area and a courtyard with outdoor furniture. A real bonus, the outdoor space at Winnows Hill Farm is fantastic if you want to relax outside during your visit.
