This was our first visit to Canal View but it certainly won’t be our last.The cottage is immaculate and has everything you could possibly need to make your stay as comfortable as possible. We were greeted with a very nice welcome pack with home made lemon drizzle cake, which was a delicious bonus! Michael and Kristine provided excellent information regarding places to visit and local pubs/restaurants which we found really helpful. The local area has so much to offer and we found everything to be good value for money. Overall a wonderful place to stay with just the sounds of canal boats and the resident ducks and swans popping in for a snack or two. We very much look forward to a return visit!

This was our second visit as we enjoyed our first visit so much. Owners went above and beyond as we took a wrong turn just at the end of our journey (thought I knew it from our previous visit!). Michael came to rescue us. I completely blotted my copybook by leaving my house keys behind and Michael again came to our rescue by posting them on to us. Many thanks for that. Our visit coincided with an extreme heatwave, but the owners supplied us with a big fan, which was a great help.All excellent.
