Larch Cottage is such an amazing place. It sits within a large area of grassland, trees, footpaths and has a long driveway. So much room to walk our dog around. You have a fantastic view from every window. The cottage is lovely. Very compact and cosy with everything you need. We felt very happy during our stay and had a lovely time. We were lucky with four cold and crisp days of blue skies and sunshine (before all the storms). A couple of hours after we arrived the landline phone rang. It was a call from the owner asking if everything was ok. Such a lovely gesture. If you go there you must visit Backwater Reservoir close by. Keep driving over the water to a beautiful view point. Thank you to James Ivory and the family for allowing us to enjoy such a wonderful location for our holiday 🤩Caroline, Dave and Sonny
