We had a lovely long weekend with 2 children and our French Bulldog, we loved the cottage beds were very comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. The hot tub was perfect and so was having access to the field at the back so we could walk the dog and the children could hunt for bugs!

The Cottage is well equipped, warm and comfortable. There are footpaths right near the cottage with nice walks, especially to Wilden. Well positioned for terrific cycle rides on quiet, not too hilly roads. I only used my car once in the 5 days I stayed. Lots of seating outside to catch the sun at all times of the day. Loved the outside areas. VeRead morery peaceful area - the cottage is quite secluded and private even though it's right next to the road. The bird song was enchanting. Could have been cleaner, but it was booked at the last minute so that was probably a factor. Owner very helpful with whatever I needed. Hide

A really lovely cottage with loads of character and original features. Lovely views from the back garden and lots of different seating areas. The field at the back is good for dogs but there are a lot of hidden holes which you or your dog could twist your ankle in, it's fine if you walk round the edge. Lots of nice places to eat and we met lots of Read morefriendly people. Our sons really enjoyed the hot tub and were in it everyday. We all had a great time and the weather was good. Hide

The cottage was just dreamy, an absolute gem in the countryside! I was living my very own fairytale and could have stayed there forever!!!! The interior was so charming and fitting for the cottage, it really had a wonderful quirk about it and a high lever of comfort.

This cottage is absolutely wonderful. Really comfortable, quiet, with fabulous views of the sunset across the field for a 'sundowner' after work. I will definitely be back if I'm ever in the area as it's a real gem.

A super cosy cottage and well equipped. Beautiful rural location, and outdoor spaces. The owners kindly provided a cooling fan when requested. A lovely holiday had by all. Plenty of places to visit and a train ride into London. Would thoroughly recommend this idyllic thatched getaway. Quiet and relaxing. Tip: driveway is on a busy road with a bend.Read more Consider the alternative parking venue that is suggested. Also note: there is no washing machine and low headroom at times. Would visit again.
