Our only issue was the fact that sykes state that the pub is 0.5 miles away and in the cottage brochure it states that it is 1.4 miles away which if you were dressed up for an evening out it would be too far to walk. However it did not effect our holiday and had the best time.

The property was very clean and comfortable especially the lovely big bed.There was a welcome pack consisting of milk ,biscuits ,chews for the dogs ,a bottle of beer and a bottle of Prosecco. There were lots of walks for the dogs. The enclosed garden was also good as we could let the dogs out safely. The furniture and fixtures were of high quality and the log burner was really welcome on the cool nights. We had a very relaxing break and would definitely return.
