The cottage and setting were beautiful. Our stay was extremely comfortable and the support and assistance provided by Maria, the housekeeper was excellent. Would like to return.

It was a delightful stay, thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and were very pleased that Maria showed us how to override the heating (helpful in the snow!). Lovely surprise to have a bottle of wine waiting for us. Very homely, comfortable place and great to explore from.

This was a lovely place to stay, very cosy and snug, and in a secluded country setting with excellent walks from the door. The heating kept the cottage warm, and there was a plentiful supply of logs for the fire. We will definitely come again.
