Guests say
Beechwood Cottage is highly praised for its cleanliness, comfort, and peaceful location. Guests appreciate the well-equipped kitchen, spaciousness, and the welcoming hosts who provide helpful assistance. The cottage's setting is ideal for countryside walks and is within driving distance of local towns and attractions. Some minor maintenance issues and suggestions for improvements are noted, but overall, guests have had enjoyable stays and many plan to return.
Guests consistently mention the cottage's cleanliness, with several reviews highlighting it as very clean and immaculate. One review mentions a small amount of mould in an en-suite, but this seems an isolated comment within the context of overall positive feedback.
The location is frequently described as peaceful and beautiful, with easy access to the countryside and local attractions. The quiet, rural setting is appreciated, although some guests note the necessity of driving to reach major towns.
Comfort is a strong point for Beechwood Cottage, with guests finding the accommodation extremely comfortable and cosy, especially with the inclusion of a wood burner. The presence of ensuites and comfortable beds are also noted positively.
The cottage is well-equipped according to guests, with a well-equipped kitchen and ample parking. Some guests suggest the addition of items like Pyrex bowls and a washing line, and there are mentions of a television signal issue and a water leak, indicating room for improvement in facilities and maintenance.
While guests mention receiving fresh eggs and the helpfulness of the hosts, there is no consistent mention of welcome packs or gifts that would allow for a fair assessment of thoughtfulness. Therefore, this score is set to null, and guests should note that such gestures, while appreciated, are not guaranteed.

These included walks up to Captain Cook's monument and Roseberry Topping. The property has been nicely decorated and maintained, and the owners were helpful and kind, even giving us some fresh eggs from their hens. Plenty of parking (even EV charging) and there are 4 toilets in the whole property, which is excellent. We had a great time as a family of 2 older parents (who benefitted from the downstairs ensuite bedroom) and 2 grown up children. However, we are not sure how spacious it would feel with 6 people, which is the capacity. The kitchen area is not very big (unless you turn the dining table, like we did) and the lounge is fairly small. It depends how people want to spend their time, I suppose. Beautiful location and we enjoyed ourselves a great deal.

Everything you need is to hand and we had a very pleasant and comfortable stay. We will certainly be recommending it to our family members. The only improvement we could suggest is perhaps to look at possibilities of making the bedrooms a little darker, as the morning light coming through the blinds made the rooms quite bright from 5 a.m. onwards.
