Could not fault this beautiful, cosy cottage. Garden and cottage are really well thought out and they have everything you need. The garden is beautiful and has a couple of lovely little seating areas and the dog just loved it too. The welcome pack was amazing and even had a little doggie hamper also the homemade lemon drizzle cake and caramel shortbreads were just devine. The Ram Inn is friendly and welcoming and the food just amazing.
