Our 3rd holiday at Southills Cottage and we've really enjoyed our stay again. The weather wasn't so good this time, but we just spent more time here unwinding in the peace and quiet, and even completed the 'Pooh Sticks' jigsaw. We spent a bit of time in the garden once it brightened up a little, and loved visits from Ollie too!
