    What a fabulously wonderful stay! Piglet Cottage was soooo gorgeous! Extremely comfy and had all we needed for our stay. The host was so helpful and prompt with replies, the bed was super comfortable and the wood burner created the cosiest of atmospheres. I would definitely recommend this stay… First Class 🤩

    Piglet cottage was top quality, beautifully finished with care and attention.We have stayed in many such places over the years and this was up with the best. We liked the large sized fridge/freezer, the extra number of coat hangers, plenty of drawer space in the bedroom an empty cupboard in the kitchen to put our own food in (not all cottages think of this) We didn't use the garden as the weather wasn't very warm, but we appreciated the sage and rosemary plants that could have been used for cooking. It would be lovely to stay in the summer, the garden is very private with plenty of garden furniture. We met the owner Mark who was on hand and helpful.
