    Plenty of outdoor walks straight from the door onto Bircher common with nearby attractions like Croft castle and a bit further Hergest ridge with glorious panoramic views.Sunnyside cottage is a lovely and inviting house, well planned out. Comfy sofas comfy beds and lovely bathrooms. We all had a great time there, would highly recommend.

  • Deliwe

    Beautiful place, very clean and the weather was very kind to us! So we enjoyed BBQ listening to the birds singing and the well kept garden! Definitely be back!

  • Carol

    the beds are very comfortable and the shower is fantastic! Unfortunately the weather wasn't good enough for us to enjoy sitting out on the balcony or terrace, but it would have been lovely to eat al fresco if the weather was up to it. We enjoyed a couple of lovely local walks with fantastic scenery. The house is in a great location, very secluded and quiet. You do have to drive up a very bumpy track to reach it, which we didn't mind after the first time, but people should be aware of this. We thoroughly enjoyed our week and would definitely recommend the property.
