We know the weather at the end of Feb is unpredictable but we enjoyed a 'change of scenery', local visits and a relaxing week in a warm, comfortable cottage. The owners were very helpful and friendly. Directions to the cottage were quite vague, we had to phone the owners late Sat afternoon for directions. Some key 'pointers' would have helped - ie some signs to look out for rather than the broad/general directions given.

We were made to feel very welcome and found the accomodation comfortable, warm, clean and relaxing - everything we wanted. The cottage is well appointed and in a great location, particularly because there are so many lovely local walks on footpaths, bridleways and quiet rural lanes that run right from the doorway. The autumn colours in the surrounding woods were stunning. Paul gave us lots of useful information which helped, including where we could see the local zebra! It was very special to be able to watch the alpacas and sheep in the paddocks right outside the cottage too. To celebrate a special occasion, we also followed Paul's recommendation to eat at The Moody Cow, where we had a wonderful meal. The Hen and Dot cafe nearby, was a great place for coffee and cake too. Thank you Paul and Edwina - we hope to return to Valley View again in the future.
