An off-road parking space welcomes you on arrival, so you can unload your belongings and swiftly start your holiday. Enter the cottage be welcomed by a charming living/dining room, where you can relax on the leather sofas and enjoy a DVD or a Freeview show on the TV; switch on the electric fire to warm your toes!

    Lovely and cosy and close to A30 to explore the area. Would recommend to friends and family. Dog friendly as well.

  • Gray

    It had everything you could possibly need.The kitchen was very well equipped.the living room was spacious with a dining table and 2 comfy leather couches and nice tv.The bedroom has plenty of storage with a nice comfy bed.The garden is enclosed so pets can roam freely.The owners could'nt have been nicer,a bottle of wine and a packet of biscuits was left for us along with lots of bottled water.The Retreat was spotlessly clean and I can't recommend highly enough.

    Kind, thoughtful owners, too. We much appreciated the pint of milk and bottle of wine! A fabulous stay. Thank you.
