Great, peaceful location. Loved waking up to the field views and the cows! And the enclosed garden was great for our dog. Feedback: suggest a table lamp for the sitting room. And also a broom as we couldnât find one.

Much nicer than the photos portray. The surrounding area was perfect for dog walks and chilling out with family. A few niggles at the cottage such as no outside light for the garden when letting the dog out after dark, the tv in the 2nd bedroom didn't work and a faulty radiator valve that caused a very loud noise, but all in all, a great place to stay and I would happily return or recommend. Thank you!
