Lovely cottage in beautiful grounds, plus a great location for exploring the surrounding area. Richard and Joanne welcoming hosts, not to mention their dogs Honey and Amber, playmates for our dog Toby who had free run of the grounds, plus great walks direct from the property. Highly recommend, hoping to return in the future.

We have enjoyed many hot breaks over the years but this is the 1st time we've returned to one and we will be back. It was our home from home, comfy, cosy, peaceful & quiet. It's handy for exploring the surrounding area too with shops, places to eat, points of interest, etc. The hot tub is sheltered private & well placed for star gazing (if the clouRead moreds allow). The owners are lovely & on hand if you need anything but otherwise do not intrude on your break. We look forward to our next break. Hide

This is a lovely comfortable property. The bed is one of the most comfortable Ive ever slept in; excellent heating and reclining sofa.
