This was our 3rd visit in 6 years (just booked for next year), although we have tried many other places over the years!Hosts Helen and Tim are lovely and provided a lovely welcome pack. The cabin is secluded 20m from a lake with large carp in it, I'm not much of a fisherman but my partner and I had so much fun catching small roach. The Hot tub was brilliant and the wild life amazing...small deer, rabbits and geese (George and Mildred Lol, you'll understand if you go) kept us entertained everyday. If there was a downside it would be the nearest pub and shop is a drive away.

Cottage is clean, well equipped and comfortable. The setting is very quiet and peaceful by shore of a lake. Owners helpful and welcoming. The location is rural within east reach of coastal resorts, local market towns and many wildlife reserves along the coast. Wifi was excellent which isn’t always the case in isolated places.
