Confirmed Guest
We had a lovely weekend stay at Cowslip. The cottage is beautiful - even better than the photos in our opinion. The hot tub was excellent, very clean, large and very easy to get in and out of. The team at Cowslip were also very responsive and accommodating. We'd love to come back and stay for longer.

This is our 2nd time visiting Cowslip cottage with friends. Prefect get away. Cottage is well equipped, with beautiful surroundings. My husband took his camera this time for all the little birds around the cottage. The hot tub is an added bonus, lovely & warm & under cover. Both times we have bearly ventured out, just played games, used the hot hub & catched up with our friends so unable to comment on the local area. We will definitely be back to Cowslip cottage again đ

Being able to sit in it and watch the rabbits and birds was a wonderful experience.The cottage was very clean, warm and comfortable and the hosts very accommodating I couldnât ask for more
