Lovely cottage very well equipped for everything we needed. Very comfortable beds Only downside as previously mentioned is the noisy road but wouldn’t put us off staying again.

Absolutely fantastic bungalow, spotlessly clean and comfortable. There is a bit of noise from the nearby road, but when you’re inside it isn’t a problem. Absolutely fabulous kitchen dinner that was well equipped with plenty of everything. There is a lovely large entrance vestibule that great for taking off wet shoes and coats, but no hooks to hang anything in there which would make a difference The entire experience was great on the whole, but the towels were a little worn with lots of loose threads. The bedding looked nice, but was bobbly on the inside, and it was man made fibres which isn’t great foe menopausal women. That said they are quite minor issues in what is a lovely property
