  • Angela

    The hosts live next door and are there if you need them but don’t intrude at all. We will definitely return thank you.

  • Frances

    Go inside and see the accommodation and experience the comfort of the furnishings and the extensive and thoughtful equipment provided. The owners next door were very helpful and pleasant. The cottage is very well placed to reach many points of interest whatever you may wish to do. We would have no hesitation in recommending this cottage to others.

    It was clean and homely. Mabel (the dog) and us really appreciated the treats that the owners gave us on arrival. Thank you.
