Third time we have stopped here. Love the location, lovely village. Some excellent walks from the village. Little Gem is a perfect base and great for couples. Don’t bring a big suitcase as you will struggle getting it up the spiral staircase (hold all’s are better) Great that it has a washer/dryer so no need to bring a mountain of clothing ...

Little Gem, really is just that. Riverside walks through the woods straight from the front door. We found the village friendly and the local shop sold delicious pasties, eaten warm on the village green, overlooking the river in the late autumn sunshine was perfect. The location is ideal to explore the area, or just enjoy the many local walks. The cottage is small and the spiral staircase is quite tight and as recommended a suitcase would be a challenge. The kitchen is very well equipped and the cottage is comfortable and good value. ...

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Little Gem. Lerryn is beautiful and the cottage itself was the perfect size for us. Everything in the cottage was well-maintained and of good quality, and the cream tea left for us was very thoughtful. A wonderful stay!...
