We’ve just come back from a week stay at cedar lodge cottage. The cottage was spotlessly clean, with a lovely welcome package, bottled water in the bedroom and some toiletries. The views were amazing, and we witnessed some spectacular sunsets, and there is an abundance of wildlife to watch in the fields. Lots of thought has been put into providing plenty of seating in the garden, whatever the weather. The hosts were always on hand if we needed anything, but not intrusive, and very helpful. The cottage was very comfortable, and had everything we needed. We will definitely be booking to go back again.

Neil and Caroline were perfect hosts. On hand if you needed them but never crowded you. The lodge is like a home from home. Quality and comfort in abundance. A lovely welcome pack to get you started and all mod cons. It was quiet and had amazing views. I can’t wait to come back to this beautiful property. 5 stars all the way.

A peaceful, beautifully kept cottage in stunning countryside. Immaculately clean, well-equipped, and perfect for a quiet getaway. The host was warm, responsive, and thoughtful throughout. Lovely walking routes nearby and a cosy interior to return to. We had a relaxing stay and would happily returnhighly recommend
