The journey to the cottage along the bridle way was worth the careful driving to arrive at this lovely property. Our two year old grand son always waited in anticipation as we went by the sign to Knights Farm , a reminder to him of one of his favourite story books, ‘Room on the Broom’ ! The cottage was perfect in every way. I don’t think we have ever stayed in any other classic property which felt so much like being at home. We thought that the cottage offered the perfect combination, a haven of peace and comfort with no distance to travel to any number of places. ...

The property is gorgeous and in an idyllic location surrounded by countryside and wildlife and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will be re-booking next year. However the access to the property is by an unmade up bridleway, the first part of this is fairly easy to negotiate however nearer to the property there are many large potholes. Our family have large SUVs but it would be difficult to negotiate in a smaller car especially in wet weather and some would not want to do so. Additionally the stairs in the old part of the cottage are steep with small treads and in the new extension the stairs are open sided with no handrail. The property may therefore not be suitable for those with mobility issues and the new stairs especially could be a safety hazard. Those with young children should be warned that there is no stair gate, fortunately we took one with us. ...

We're so pleased that you enjoyed your stay in Keepers Cottage and that you liked its beautiful countryside setting. The cottage is set down a long narrow unmade track, as mentioned in the description, but we're sorry if you found some potholes in places and we'll certainly forward your findings for the owners' attention along with your suggestion to provide stair gates. We will also ask our Property Manager to consider adding some photos of the stairs to our website. We do look forward to welcoming you back again next year. Alison, Customer Support...

A delightful, well-equipped and comfortable family home which made it a pleasure to spend some holiday time in.

The cottage was great for all ages - comfortable & homely, it was lovely to chill out & look at the wildlife in the garden and basically just to do nothing! One day we just stayed at the cottage & went for a nice long walk then came back and relaxed while my daughter & family went to the beach for the day! We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will be back....

Keepers Cottage is the ideal stay for those looking for peace and tranquility surrounded by wonderful scenery and wildlife. We loved the garden and especially enjoyed the red squirrel that visited us. The main living area is ideal for making the most of the view, the garden and a comfortable place to relax. The cottage is in a great location on the island with so many lovely places nearby to visit and enjoy. I would highly recommend staying here and we hope to again in the future....
