The cottage receives high marks for cleanliness, with multiple reviews mentioning it being very clean. Only one review suggests the bedding is old, but still clean.
The location is generally appreciated for being a quiet spot and good for relaxation. However, one review mentions being woken up early by a cockerel and another suggests following directions from the owner as sat nav may be inaccurate.
Comfort is well-regarded, with guests finding the cottage cosy and the beds conducive to good sleep, although one review notes the bed was lumpy and hard, and another mentions difficulty with the furniture due to arthritis.
There are mixed comments on facilities and maintenance. Guests find the cottage well-equipped and mention new garden furniture, but one review suggests it needs updating, and another had issues with the sofa and armchair.

Good location for us. It needs up dating. The main problem was the bed, it was lumpy and very hard. The bedding was clean but old.
