As a group of 5 lads, staying at the property for 3 nights, got to say the property was the best we have stayed in (and we have stayed in plenty), didn't need much in the way of what a cottage provides, a descent cooker, descent shower and comfortable beds (however the pillows were to hard for my liking) and a large kitchen table, the property itself was very clean and tidy and had everything we needed, TV, WIFI, descent showers, descent kitchenThe location was in the middle of nowhere which what we wanted, the local amenities were quite far away but 15-20 minute drive so not to bad, so everybody in our group was very satisfied, and got to give a shout out to Kimberly who was very friendly and attentive, and supplied 2 beers and crisps which was a pleasant surprise! Will definitely be coming back next year!

A stunning house which is on a quiet road. Very comfortably furnished, fabulously warm and toasty. We stayed for a week in October half term for a three generation holiday. Plenty of space for everyone. Will definitely return.
