Foxglove is an absolutely beautiful place surrounded by nature and a gorgeous property clearly finished to Avery high specification. We loved relaxing, using the hot tub, listening to the sheep and lambs on the balcony and even watching the sunrise. Jackie is the most perfect host providing a wonderful welcome gift and the additional brownies and pavlova we ordered were devine. We would love to return in the future.

Absolutely fantastic cottage, exceptionally clean & home from home - even cooked a roast! Would 100% go again & best hot tub we’ve had. Jackie was super helpful. Lovely touches like a homemade cake, hot tub towels, many games & puzzles. Only tiny bit of feedback would be more plastic drink-wear options for the hot tub as only disposable champagne flutes provided, & a decent frying pan would be good. Otherwise, the cottage was simply perfect. Thank you x
