It is a lovely cottage in a good location. The welcome gifts were much appreciated and enjoyed. Overall had an enjoyable stay but it could be elevated with a little attention to the interior decor, e.g. curtains, blinds and cushions. The double bed could do with a new mattress.

Our 5th visit! I think that says it all. Lovely peaceful place, very comfortable and the walk to the Stag Inn is well worth it.
