Guests say
Havannah Cottage is praised for its peaceful, rural setting with stunning views, spacious layout, and dog-friendly amenities. Guests appreciate the well-equipped kitchen, enclosed garden, and comfortable furnishings. While most find it clean and cosy, some noted cleanliness issues, particularly with pet hair. The remote location is ideal for tranquillity but requires driving to shops.
Most guests found the cottage to be clean and well-maintained, though there were comments about pet hair and a damp dog smell, suggesting room for improvement in cleaning between stays.
The cottage's location is highly valued for its serenity, rural charm, and proximity to walks and nature. However, its remoteness means a drive is necessary for shopping, which may not suit everyone.
Guests consistently report a high level of comfort, with a cosy atmosphere, comfortable beds, and a spacious interior. One minor issue was a bed size discrepancy.
The cottage is well-equipped, with a large kitchen and amenities for dogs. Points were deducted for the lack of a washing line and a well-lit sign, as well as the need for a handrail outside the back door.
While the reviews reflect a dog-friendly approach with provided amenities, there is no mention of gifts or additional thoughtful touches for guests, thus a score cannot be given.

Havannah cottage is a lovely well spaced out cottage in a peaceful location. Very dog friendly with a well enclosed garden for them.Would recommend *a more well lit sign as when arriving on a dark wet night wasn't very visible * A hand rail outside the back dooroverall a good cottage and would definitely go back
