The cottage was perfect for our weekend away with friends. On arrival, we were greeted by Chris and the farm dog Sam. The place was warm and welcoming. The open plan living space was generous. The kitchen was very well equipped and the large farmhouse table served us well for Sunday Lunch and playing games! Everyone agreed that the beds were very comfortable. Being all on one level was great for one of our friends who had mobility problems (with only a few steps outside to get to the car).
