Guests frequently commend the cottage for its cleanliness, describing it as 'spotlessly clean' and 'very clean'. The attention to cleanliness contributes significantly to the overall positive experience.
The cottage's location is highly regarded for its quietness and easy access to local attractions. The peaceful setting in a hamlet and proximity to Exmoor's countryside are particularly appreciated.
Reviewers find the cottage very comfortable, with a special mention of the quality mattress ensuring a good night's sleep. The enclosed garden and cosy atmosphere add to the comfort level.

Set in the heart of Exmoor in the owners own land which they encourage you to use freely, including their own garden with a magnificent pond. The cottage is well equipped and deceptively large for a one bedroomed place. The area has so much to offer and a week simply wasn't long enough to see everything. Thanks so much Jo and Adrian.
