This is Lovely cottage with lots of character and charm. It has all the mod cons too including a very effective central heating system, an air fryer and all the kitchen equipment you could possibly need. The villiage is lovely too.

We, as a family, had the most fantastic time at this truly home from home cottage. Set in an ancient village with church bells and a pub dating back to the doomsday book, the atmosphere is great. As are the views. We were so comfortable and the cottage has everything equipment and games wise that you could hope for. Weather wasn’t great but we had games to occupy us. One of the best things about Bonsall is the Barley Mow pub. Atmosphere 10, service 10 and truly epic food. Don’t miss it! Heartily recommend d this holiday home. Thank you Adam for all the help 🙏
