What a gorgeous cosy & warm cottage, If you want peace and quiet this is a must. Only stayed for a weekend but next time (oh yes we will be back!) definitely longer and we may actually venture out to visit a few places! We were a group of 4 who just wanted a get away together and chill out, which we certainly did. It is a very spacious cottage with everything you need. Very comfortable beds & bedding. There is a Lidl & Sainsbury’s a short drive away so no local shop to walk to, but we were aware of this & took enough supplies so we could just lock the door and light the fire. Perfect. Only 1 small thing…it would be lovely if there were 2 sofas in the lounge. But perfect

Lovely little cottage, very cosy and comfortable. The beds were very comfy, it was toasty and warm when we arrived and there was some lovely boxed chocolates along with necessities such as teabags, coffee, sugar and milk. There is an option to have a lovely roaring fire and all the appliances you might need including washing machine and dryer. The shower was a bit intermittent for us but I think the host may have since resolved that.Great communication from the host, would recommend.
