A really lovely charming cottage. The owner met us who was very nice and showed us around. The cottage had everything we needed. Even washing capsules so I could wash a few items. It was very comfortable and clean and had a lovely character. I would highly recommend to anyone.

First time ever I have been really disappointed with a cottage. The smell of smoke even though fires were not used was unacceptable. Stinging eyes and sore throats. This property requires an assessment for COSHH (control of substances hazardous to health).Cottage has a beautiful sunny garden in a very nice area but decor and heating needs upgrading and modernisation. Not good value for money.

The cottage was as described. It was in a quiet village ideal for a walking centre. The owners were able to be contacted if problems occurred. All the equipment worked perfectly and we had a pleasant stay with everything that made our holiday very enjoyable.
