We booked this cottage for a four night break, and what a lovely place to stay. It was so warm, comfortable and peaceful. The price was very reasonable and the host was lovely too. There was everything we needed and cannot fault this place. It’s very dog friendly and has a safe enclosed garden. There is a village shop about ten minutes walk from the cottage ( turn left as you leave the cottage ).
