The welcome basket with teabags, coffee, milk, cake and crisps was a nice touch. They also provided: washing up liquid, tea towels, kitchen roll, hand soap, moisturiser, and toilet rolls. Tony and Paula sent us a welcome message to check we had settled in and everything was ok which was also a nice touch. Would definitely stay again.
Kelly
Well equipped with everything you need. Nice size rooms. Lovely shower. Very quiet location. Lovely places to visit nearby. Really enjoyed our stay. Would definitely go again. *please don't be put off by reading reviews about driving through building works, it is away from the cottage and will not affect your stay in any way*
Sarah
Very clean, comfortable and warm. Beautiful big rooms and beds were very comfortable with lovely bed linen. Well equipped kitchen with a thoughtful welcome pack. The whole cottage had a very calming ambience and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Was concerned with the reviews regarding the building works but that is just when you enter the site and cottages are out of the way so not disturbed by the noise. Thank you to the owners and look forward to staying again.
