We (2 adults and 1 Cocker Spaniel), came here for a quiet re-set, a bit of a 'road-trip' and a couple of 're-unites' with old friends. Our stay did not disappoint in any way. Ellie made everything so effortless and so comfortable. We were able to relax straightaway and feel the full benefit of this delightful cottage.

Great stay with our daughter and her family. 2nd bedroom probably more suited to children 7 years and above. Felt a bit cramped for 2 adults and a child. However everything else worked well, with plenty of space to cook, eat relax, play with our granddaughter. Enjoyed Belvoir castle/grounds and country park and walk to reservoir for a picnic. Very good play park just down the road.
