    The host was very friendly and obliging when we met her on arrival.

  • Heath

    Lots of room, well maintained with all you need in the kitchen. Great bedrooms all of a good size, warm and cozy, private and although we didn't use it, the rear garden is lovely. I would recommend and would look to stay again. If I was to give any negatives, there is no pub in the village, so you will need to drive out, but beyond the village, there are loads of great places in Retford, which is only 6 miles away.

    The cottage was absolutely perfect, it was everything we needed for our stay. All amenities were in driving distance, my dog loved the large garden and the cottage overall is very spacious. Great stay!!
