Guests consistently noted the property as spotlessly clean, indicating a high standard of cleanliness that contributed positively to their stay.

The location is generally appreciated for its proximity to local attractions and the village charm, though one review mentioned the proximity to a busy road as a downside.

The cottage is frequently described as comfortable, with a particularly comfortable bed and a peaceful environment, enhancing the overall guest experience.

Facilities are highly regarded, with special mentions of the hot tub and well-equipped kitchen. One review suggested an improvement for the hot tub cover, but overall, maintenance seems prompt and effective.

    Lovely well equipped cottage, had small issue with TV which was sorted very quickly by Gill & Steve. Lovely big hot tub which would benefit from a cover for the times when the weather is not very good, a retractable awning would be good. The only downside is the location of the cottage it is too close to a fairly busy road, which if you spent time in the garden would not be very pleasant.
