Perfect location and with designated parking which is a huge bonus. The standard of furnishings and equipment is spot on although the corner sofa is a squash with three people unless one is laying. We would prefer more than one armchair but that’s just a small niggle. Beds lovely and comfortable and kitchen well planned. It’s right in the heart of the village with lovely walks, plenty of coffee shops, restaurants and pubs, and lots of nice shops to browse.

We had a great break at The Old Weigh House, the location and accommodation is excellent. Communication was excellent throughout, including bumping the holiday several times due to covid restrictions.We will be back and would recommend this cottage.
