Beautiful cottage in a lovely area. Close enought to shops etc but far enough away to enjoy the peace and quiet of the local area. The house is very well kept and the owner was very friendly and helpful when we needed any advice and even a favour! I would definitely recommend this place to anyone wishing to experience the best of the stunning surroundings.Thank you.

We did a short stay at Harper's Cottage. Cottage was clean, comfortable and well equipped. Great location with local pubs and Michelin starred restaurant within walking distance. Lovely surrounding countryside. Would highly recommend.

Enjoyed a lovely short winter break at Harper’s Cottage. The weather was cold outset but we were warm and snug in this cosy, comfortable cottage. We loved it.
