Guest Reviews

George
We really enjoyed this cosy countryside cottage, perfect for a peaceful getaway. The place was spotless and had everything we needed, including firewood for the hot tub-such a nice touch! We did bring our own towels for the hot tub, not realising they were provided. Our dog was also happily welcomed. Definitely recommend for a relaxing break!
Emma Carter
We had a fantastic time at this gorgeous cottage! The garden is perfect for dogs, totally private and secure. The space inside is really impressive, with two lovely double bedrooms, each with en-suites. The kitchen is fully stocked, including a dishwasher and washing machine - everything we needed. Plenty of parking for two cars too. The owners are super friendly and helpful, making our stay even better. Highly recommend if you want a relaxing break in a beautiful place!
