A great holiday home surrounded by wildlife. The owners are most welcoming and have made Ferry Cottage into a beautiful home for guests to enjoy. It’s a perfect place to explore the great outdoors from and lots to do on your door step too. It’s a place you never want to leave!

We loved Ferry Cottage.The cottage itself is in a beautiful quiet location with lovely gardens and views of the river, yet only a short walk into town to access the local amenities.It is really well equipped and we were delighted to make it our home for the week.Some lovely walks right from the door, we only used our car once all week.We would certainly both recommend and return.
