Wow. What a wonderful cottage. My wife and I have stayed in many self catering cottages over many years and this is up with the best. The quality of decor and equipment is outstanding. The view from the cottage over the owners beautifully kept garden and the planting around the cottage is excellent. The owners are very welcoming but left us very much on our own. We love the area and our stay was memorable, we will definitely look to staying at ‘The Loft’ again

The Loft is a lovely place to stay, it has everything you need and more. Very comfy bed and quality furnishings. A lot of effort has been taken to make it welcoming and comfortable. Lovely garden to sit in and admire the view and is very peaceful.

We recently spent three nights at The Loft and can honestly say it was superb. The setting is fantastic, the directions are spot on (necessary because the cottage is quite remote), the hosts are attentive but did not intrude and small details like the bottle of champagne in the fridge really made our holiday.We went in March but the heating and lashings of hot water made the cottage extremely cozy and comfortable.
