It was a very relaxing holiday. Comfortable beds, nice hot tub. The only issue i found was the tow path is next to the property and when it gets dark the poeple walking past can see you in the hot tub and in the lounge. I woild put blinds in the lounge area in case you need or want privacy. A lovely holiday though. Canal fishing is hard though, but we still enjoyed it.

A beautiful, clean, gorgeous property. So well equipped, so beautifully kept. We had such a lovely weekend. The garden area is just amazing for dogs and kids, no matter the weather. Beds are super comfy and the pillows were amazing. The hot tub was great, even in the rain our little girl loved it! We couldn’t recommend it enough, we will be back. Thank you so much!

We absolutely loved our stay at Cathill Cottage. We visited with our 2 boys aged 6 and 8 and we were all immediately impressed with the layout and space on offer. The garden is huge and the photos really don't do it justice. Our boys are football mad so the goal was a perfect addition to the garden space. The amazing hamper was also a lovely welcome treat. Our boys loved counting the many trains that run right by the property but without being a noisy distraction. They also loved the hot tub with speakers enjoying their favourite songs whilst having fun. The canal on the other side of the property meant we could take our bikes for rides which they loved so much. Overall we had a fantastic stay visiting many local attractions but after a long day we all loved coming back to the cottage. We will definitely be coming back in the future.
