Reviews

Really enjoyed our stay in this lovely cottage and its stunning location, despite the weather from storm Gerrit over the Christmas period. We are in the process of booking again for a week or two in the summer of 2024. The owners are very helpful and friendly without being intrusive.

Mr J,

Lovely cottage. Great location the area is gorgeous. The cottage had everything you could wish for in terms of comfort and equipment. Towels, chews, bowls and dog bags were provided and owner was very welcoming.

Mr H,

A beautiful old cottage in a quiet rural setting with a babbling beck running through the garden. Plentiful birds flying in and out of the trees. A lovely welcome basket of eggs, home grown tomatoes, porridge, soup and milk. On a rainy day it is very relaxing to sit in the conservatory reading and watching the birds and the beck. Our dog had a lovely time in the nearby fields. The owner is always around to advise on places to go and ensuring our comfort. A really beautiful area.
