    The view from the lounge to the garden and to the pond and trees is so beautiful. We watched the birds enjoy the surrounding and food in the feeders. There are some lovely walks to enjoy with fields that your dog can be let off of the lead. The cottage itself is of a good standard and spotless. Recliner chair was a lovely surprise, I had many sleepy afternoons in it. Lucinda, and George the dog, made us very welcome and were only nextdoor if needed. I would have no hesitation in returning or recommending this cottage to friends and family
