Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Rebecca's Cottage. Characterful, cosy and comfortable. And quirky. The staircase is steep and narrow, but was manageable for us two 70 + year olds! Plenty to see nearby - canals, historic houses (eg Canons Ashby), churches and Civil War battle sites. Not to mention HST construction sites and other railways. Good options for dog walks in the village and nearby. Friendly locals.

All good and had a great meal at the pub next door with a nice little £20 voucher from the cottage. Great location for us while racing at Whilton Mill for the weekend, somewhere to stay with the dog.
