A lovely cottage. Our second stay. We loved the peace and quiet and rural location. Great with the dog as the garden was very secure and lots of space to run around. The cottage was very well equipped and perfect for our stay.

A peaceful retreat in its own grounds and dark at night. Equipped with everything we needed and more besides. The personal welcome and basket of local goodies made us feel instantly at home. We would highly recommend this as a base to explore the local area or just to relax in and read a good book....

Odd building and location, in a good way. It even makes a change to leave the car at the end of hedged footpath. Very relaxing knowing that the dog can be rummaging in the large garden with iron fence. Everything you need and comfortable with lovely breakfast essentials....
