Perkins cottage is a true home from home, very cosy and very well equipped. Beautiful setting and we were blessed to wake up with snow on a couple of days.We will definately recommend and would love to come back in the summer to make use of the garden The cottage has plenty of pots, pans, mugs etc the beds are extremely comfy we had a lovely stay here, Lisa kept in touch and was very responsive when we needed her.We weren't aware but there is a log burner effect fire in the front room but it doesn't work, the one in the dining room is a working one and there was a huge basket of logs to keep you going. We all had a lovely stay here and the dog had a lovely stay too. We appreciated the treats left both for us and the dog. Perkins cottage is a little Gem

We stayed at Perkins cottage over Christmas. The communication before arriving from Lisa was very clear and informative. We arrived and the cottage was warm and welcoming. We had a welcome gift in the form of mince pies. Lisa provides everything you need for a comfortable stay, even down to dishwasher tablets. The cottage was very homely and clean throughout. The little touches ie dog treats, blankets etc were well received by Spencer the dog. We had the perfect Christmas here and would recommend to anyone thinking about staying.
