A welcoming and quaint country cottage ideal for a couple, especially if you like walking in the countryside. Communication was excellent with the owner and the cottage was extremely clean. The local pub, The Star, was just along the road where you can get excellent food served by friendly staff.

We spent a lovely week away in this cottage in harbottle. The cottage was bigger in person than it seemed on the photos - which was a pleasant surprise. The cottage had everything we needed including some firewood which was a nice touch. The kitchen was full of all the appliances we could need with good instructions provided. It was a very cosy stay, the host was incredibly responsive to our mesages. Couldnt have asked for more. Thank you for having us
