The cottage was very comfortable and fitted out with quality furnishings and surrounded by nature. It had everything you would need. The bonus was being able to go into Easton Walled Gardens through a private gate at anytime. The wonderful welcome pack of bread, butter, milk, homemade cake, sloe gin, wine and elderflower presse were a lovely touch.Read more Also the vase of flowers (from the gardens) with a note from the owner made a warm welcome.
