. From the moment we pulled up the cottage delivered. The welcome pack, sausages, eggs, bacon, milk, fruit, juice, wine, on and on. It is so beautiful, and is filled with everything you could possibly need ( lots you dont need but are there anyway). So clean and comfortable with delightful owners. If we were the type to keep going to the same place on holiday this would be top of the list. Oh, its set in beautiful countryside as well. Thank you Julia our stay was fantastic xxxx

The property is in immaculate condition with everything you could want for a week or two week stay. The hosts made the five of us (all adults) very welcome with superb cooked breakfast products including eggs from their own chickens or cereals and fruit if you preferred. There are several pubs within a 15 minute drive offering varied menus but check the reviews as some are better than others. There are plenty of National trust or English Heritage properties to visit within 30 Mins to an hours drive and of course Castles, wonderful beaches, stunning walks and Water Falls (high force) a little further away to entertain any family or group. Rede River cottage is highly recommended by everyone in our group
