A beautiful cottage with a wonderful loving, historic atmosphere. The views of the river and hills are stunning. Opening the bedroom window and feeling the majesty of the hills and lifeforce of the river will stay with me forever. Breakfast on the terrace, watching the water caressing the rocks and the rising sun lighting up the hills was utterRead morely idyllic. Although it was Autumn, the cottage was warm in temperature as well as atmosphere. We had everything we could wish for within and without the cottage. The location is perfect for exploring the beauty of Exmoor and the roads are breathtaking. I truly hope to return one day. A little piece of my heart has been left there. Hide

It is a lovely cottage, in a picturesque location. The cottage is very well equipped, beautifully presented and extremely clean. We loved that it was decorated for Christmas too and the welcome pack was a nice touch and was very much appreciated. A cupboard full of games was also a nice addition.
