Fabulous cottage with everything you need supplied even down to a dressing gown. Bed was super comfy. Shower was lovely and powerful, just as I like it. Cream tea on arrival was a lovely surprise.

The cottage was OK but it could easily have been lovely, there were a number of smallish issues that spoilt it. The gate leading to the property needs to be mended, it has dropped and needed lifting to open plus it needs repairing as coming apart. The bath/shower has some really horrid black mould, the door to the bathroom does not shut properly - it drags and will not stay shut and the toilet does not flush very well. The main bedroom door also has problems shutting and the built in cupboards all have warped doors. On a positive note very clean and the bed was comfy.Such a shame as actually could have been so nice but as it was we left a day early.

Fantastic stay at Lilly's. Peaceful setting. Spotlessly clean and fully equipped kitchen.
