Guests that stayed at this property said
Reviewers describe the property as 'lovely clean' and tidy, indicating high standards of cleanliness that contribute positively to their stay.
The cottage's location is frequently highlighted for its breathtaking valley views and proximity to a village, though it maintains a sense of seclusion, surrounded by moor.
Comfort is a strong point with guests mentioning 'comfortable and cosy' beds and a 'home away from home' feeling, suggesting a very comfortable stay.
Facilities are generally praised, including a children's play area and dog walking paddock. However, the score is slightly lowered due to the mention of weak Wi-Fi, which could affect the maintenance aspect.
Guests appreciate the thoughtful gestures such as welcome gifts and goody bags. While these are highly valued, it is politely noted that such personal touches, though likely, are not guaranteed for every stay.

The owners were very helpful and accommodating given that we booked last minute. It is set in beautiful remote surroundings and our children loved running around the farm and local area. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

We loved it! It was cosy and we had everything we needed. The directions provided were excellent and you are a 5 minute drive from a village with a shop and tea rooms but the cottage itself is surrounded by moor.

Stunning views and access direct to the Moor. We had a lovely welcome gift for us and our dog. Would recommend.
