It is superbly equipped with an abundance of crockery and cutlery. There is a laundry room. The shower is powerful and hot. The situation is a good jumping off point for visits. Owners very pleasant and helpful.

Very good quality furniture, fittings and appliances. We may well visit here again. Games room, pool and children's play area. Just about all you might need. Just remember to take your own towels.

It was spotlessly clean and every effort had been made to provide everything you needed. The fresh cows milk, apple juice and gingerbread on arrival were a lovely addition! The swimming pool and games room we're a massive hit, not just with an 8 and 12 Yr old, and we were in there daily! We were also informed that they got their hot water from a tank, so make sure to have quick showers, as for four of us (two kids who like to take their time) it lasted just long enough. Do remember to take take your towels, as I misread and didn't take extra, so we used our beach towels a lot! We ventured out most days and upon return, it always felt comforting and like a home away from home. The owners were always on hand for any questions and were absolutely lovely. They held a pizza night which unfortunately we couldn't make, but thought it was a very nice touch. We would highly recommend Saffron Cottage and would not hesitate to go back.
