We really enjoyed our stay in this cottage - you feel set apart from the hustle of life. It was easy to keep warm and the kitchen is so well equipped. Even though the hosts are on-site, it's in a private setting with lovely views. You do need to get used to ducking through doors upstairs - which adds to the charm - and take care on the stairs.

Robert & Genevieve very welcoming we were very comfortable in the cottage. We particularly enjoyed the bathroom with large bath & shower and the views over fields from the Red bedroom.

We had the most glorious week at the cottage, everything you think an English cottage in the country could be and more. Very well appointed (even had a salad spinner). Location was idyllic! Our hosts were lovely, Genevieve was very approachable when needed. The homemade bread, marmalade and fresh eggs were delicious and, alongside the bottle of pRead morerosecco and apple juice, we felt thoroughly spoilt. We would highly recommend this delightful cottage to anyone looking for a quiet retreat. Hide

Everything was perfect. We were one week in this property with four adults and a small child, 1 1/2 year old. The owners wherever friendly, gave tips for what would be nice to do with the child, brought extra toys. We didnt miss a thing in the kitchen, the beds were very comfortable. We had a great time
