Guests say
Guests generally appreciate the cottage's peaceful setting, stunning views, and the hot tub. The property is clean, comfortable, and well-equipped, making it a great base for exploring the surrounding area. The hosts are described as friendly and welcoming.
The property is consistently described as clean and well-kept, with several reviews highlighting its spotless condition. This suggests a high standard of cleanliness throughout the property.
The location is praised for its peacefulness, beautiful views, and proximity to local attractions. However, the access via a narrow lane may be challenging for some, slightly affecting the score.
While many guests find the property comfortable and cosy, there are some concerns about sofa comfort and creaky floorboards. The beds are generally liked, but the small size of the bedrooms is noted.
The hot tub is a highlight, but there are mixed reviews about maintenance and facilities. Some guests mention mismatched decor and kitchenware, and issues with garden security for dogs. The lack of updated information and instructions for appliances also suggests room for improvement.
There is no mention of gifts in the reviews, so it is not possible to assess the thoughtfulness of the hosts in this regard. Therefore, the score is set to null.

Beautiful place to stay for a long weekend. Very well kept, and even added bonus of Christmas decorations to help get us in the festive mood. Stunning views from the hot tub and secure, dog friendly garden. Hosts were very friendly and welcoming, would highly recommend a stay here.

Beautiful barn - unique, cosy and warm interior. Views to die for, very secluded giving you the peace you want to relax but close to some beautiful towns and beaches so plenty to do. Owners are lovely, very friendly and accommodating. I can’t wait to return in the future.
