We had the most wonderful stay at Howe Cottage — it truly exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that every little detail had been so thoughtfully considered, making it feel both luxurious and incredibly homely.The cottage is beautifully decorated, with such care and style in every room. One of the biggest highlights for us was the safe and secure garden — perfect for our two boys to play freely, which made our stay all the more relaxing.The location is also fantastic, ideal for exploring the surrounding area and heading out on little adventures. We especially loved being so close to Westerton Farmers — it’s absolutely worth a visit (we enjoyed it so much we went twice!).Thank you, Julia, for creating such a special place. We’ve made some really lovely family memories here and would absolutely love to return.
