Guests consistently mention the cottage’s cleanliness, comfortable bed, and well-equipped kitchen. The owner, Lucy, is frequently described as friendly and helpful.

Parking can be a challenge at times, but the provided permit is appreciated.
Cleanliness is frequently highlighted, with many guests describing the cottage as spotlessly clean, beautifully presented, and well maintained. Only a couple of minor mentions of cobwebs were noted, but these did not detract significantly from the overall impression.

Great cottage, super location. Just a one thing TV to small,when you’ve been out walking all day and you just want to relax. It was just a little bit too small to see.
