We loved this cottage so much, it's located in a beautiful landscape garden with views over the hills (Pitch hill). It's a bit though to get there with your luggage as you need to climb 50 steps up to reach it. But if you are there, it's worth it. But maybe less suitable for eldery/less mobile visitors. Inside it has a handy layout, with a big, well equipped kitchen, a cool, lower bedroom a few steps down. It's a 'smart home' with a Sonos music system, tv's in every room, lights in the bathroom switch on/off automatically etc. We had some troubles with the toilet that also should flush automatically when you wave with you hand, but for us it didn't work so well most of the times.We loved the terrace, on a hot afternoon after visiting the beautiful area it's a perfect place to relax in the shade with a bit of wind. We were surrounded by rabbits, squirls, birds...so peaceful. The owners were great and easy to contact. We like to come back some time!

We had a lovely stay. The cottage is very well equipped and the beds are very comfortable. Our little boy was super excited about his bedroom in the attic too :) First day was a bit chilly but with underfloor heating on, it turned very cosy. The owner was very friendly and helpful, without being overbearing. Not a fan of the wet room (personal preference), however it was tidy and clean. The steps from the parking to the cottage are a bit of a trek (about 50 steps), but they are on levels with some benches along the way, so it was not a big issue for us. There is access to the utility area with all the amenities too. The views are amazing and we had a pleasant stay.
