A fantastic holiday cottage which is totally relaxing and extremely comfortably furnished. Thank you for taking the extra time to tastefully decorate the cottage for Christmas. It was so pretty. As with our past stays at the cottage we couldnât fault it at all. Thank you.

Didnât have any difficulty finding parking. We were troubled a little by flys at the start of our stay (had to get fly spray to keep them under control). They seemed to disappear when the weather got a little fresher. Kitchen was well equipped. Cooker lovely, although I couldnât get the grill to heat (gave up in the end). Also, although there were plenty of oven trays, only a couple actually fitted into ANY of the ovens.
