We had an amazing stay at hen gapel! Very cozy cottage and in an excellent location for feeling like you're in nature but not too far from nearby towns and shops. The owners kindly left us treats and wood for the fire which was really appreciated, it felt like pretty much everything you could need had been considered. The shower was great and the beds were very comfortable. We also recommend topping up the bird feeders if you can, we saw a collection of garden birds, woodpeckers, and even a hawfinch during our stay.

Peaceful and quiet well equiped cottage in an out of the way location. Just the ticket if you want to relax.
