Dairyman cottage was a superb place to stay. Rural but within easy distance to a variety of attractions.

We're so pleased that you enjoyed your stay at Dairyman's Cottage, and particularly liked meeting the feathered residents of the farm! Unfortunately we have had to make some adaptations to our usual warm welcome due to implementing safety precautions in light of Covid-19. One of these adaptations is to reduce the number of unnecessary items or those that can't be easily sanitised, and this has affected our usual welcome tray supplies. We do hope to be able to reinstate this as soon as possible, but in the meantime we hope you'll understand the need for such measures. Tanya, Customer Support...
