A lovely cottageVery peaceful sitting outside in a very well kept private garden with a lovely open viewUnfortunately the heat stopped us from doing that apart from very early or very late in the day…We just picked the wrong week weather wiseVery well equipped cottage and very helpful responsive hostI was advised prior by text that there’s no freezer in the cottageI do think it might be an idea to have a fridge with a small freezer compartment so ice packs for travelling home could be refrozen Apart from that an ideal location for exploring the local area and coast beyond 😊

Wow what an amazing holiday we have just had, Brookfields is an absolutely beautiful cottage in beautiful surroundings, the cottage as everything you could think of to make it an extremely comfortable luxurious stay! The owner Judith is great very friendly and helpful, and goes out of her way to help with any enquiries you may have, we asked about the local area and near by things to do with children and Judith was happy to oblidge providing information about lots of lovely days out. On arrival at the cottage we found it very clean welcoming and inviting and we couldn't wait to start our holiday. The cottage as a beautifully well kept enclosed garden with lovely views across fields, and the only noise we could hear where birds, sheep and a horse spent many a relaxing times in the garden enjoying the views. We found the cottage to be somewhere we could relax and slow down whilst enjoying family time with our children but also close to fun exciting days out for the children. We had the best holiday and didn't want to come home, half way through our stay we decided to rebook brookfields again for next year we enjoyed it so much. Thank you Judith we had a fantastic holiday. We loved it.
