The cottage was great, very clean and a great location. The housekeeper was really helpful and welcoming. I cannot fault the location or surroundings. Whilst this is not a criticism of the condition of the cottage or the owners, more a practical observation due the he age of the property. It is not the most comfortable for anyone over six foot tall, the ceilings are very low and the access to the upstairs bedroom is challenging. As I stated that this could not be helped due to the age of the property.

Lovely quaint cottage in rural location. The garden was enclosed and large enough for a mad sproodle to run round in. Bonus was garden chairs for relaxing in the sun. Very few places have garden furniture so most welcome. The cottage was very comfortable and extremely well equipped, even having egg cups!! Unfortunately, the duvet was very thin so not warm enough for the cold evenings but blankets were supplied. The oven knobs detail had worn off so had to use manual to operate and the shelves were in need of a good clean.Apart from these minor issues, we had a lovely stay and the weather was very kind to us

The cottage is a hidden gem it was very clean and well equipped with lots of little extras we haven’t found at other cottages we stayed at. It’s a perfect spot to visit friends and family when we go home.
