It was very cosy, clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. A perfect base to explore the beautiful area. Had a trip to Richmond and enjoyed a walk along the riverside. Good food at the pub next door and staff were very friendly. Would definitely recommend the cottage to family and friends. Thank you
Diana
Comfortable beds and well equipped kitchen. Could do with some over-door hangers in small bedroom for clothes/towels. Food at pub next door is excellent (particularly takeaway fish and chips on our first night) and there was no disturbance from the pub whatsoever.

We had a great time and the cottage is lovely but the water is awful, smells and tastes stagnant so bought bottled water, other than that it was a nice place to stay
