We love staying at Crows Cabin, its been our 5th year in a row we have stayed there, it is the holiday we most look forward to each year and would recommend to anyone

The cabin was spotless and warm but we were unable to use the front door due to it swelling caused by the wet weather. When this was pointed out to the owner he tried to fix the problem but it remained. Given how wet it had been we were not surprised. It just meant we used the other door, which wasn't a problem. The fact that the cabin leant slightly was, we were assured, was also due to the weather and would be corrected The starter supplies left were an added bonus, so thank you very much. Very good food was obtained at The New Dawn Inn in Norton, which we heartily recommend.

The cabin is lovely and quirky as well as very cosy and has everything you need. The only downside for us was the bed. The mattress itself was fine but the springs on the bed are sagging which means we were rolling into the middle all the time causing us backache. We tried putting pillows and blankets under the mattress for support but it didn't work. If you can cope with this then I highly recommend a visit as it's just so lovely.
