Guests that stayed at this property said
The majority of guests found the cottage to be clean and well-maintained, with only a few isolated comments about needing to give the place a once-over upon arrival. The overall impression is that the property is kept to a high standard of cleanliness.
The cottage's location is highly praised for its quiet setting and proximity to local attractions and walks. Guests appreciated the rural charm and the scenic views, making it an ideal retreat for those looking to explore the countryside.
Comfort levels are generally high, with guests mentioning cosy stays and powerful showers. However, there are remarks about an uncomfortable bed and a tiny second bedroom, which suggests that while the cottage is comfortable for most, it may not meet everyone's comfort needs.
Facilities are well-regarded, with the cottage being equipped for self-catering and providing a good selection of DVDs and board games. However, the lack of phone signal and Wi-Fi was a concern for some, especially for planning activities, which affects the score.
While there are positive comments about the hosts' friendliness and a mention of welcome flowers and milk, there is not enough consistent information about thoughtful gestures or gifts to accurately score this category.

Phil was very helpful. The views were lovely, some amazing walks near by and a lovely tearoom/ restaurant called the ramblers retreat. The cottage its self was lovely and it was very nice to not have internet or phone signal, plenty of dvdâs and board games to be you entertained.

Phil was great with his meet and greet. Peaceful, quiet, and relaxing. Great to have no Internet and mobile phone signals, just what we needed to unwind. Walks in the area are fantastic and local pubs were a pleasure.
