The cottage was perfect for us, the owners were really good and accessible, communication was excellent. It’s in a lovely village and very peaceful. They let me know straight away I had left something and they are going to post it on to me.

Lovely cottage in peaceful quiet location but not far from shop and places to eat. Spacious, nicely furnished, very well equipped and very clean. Milk and other supplies provided and much appreciated. Very nice courtyard garden with flowering plants and houseplants in the cottage made for a nice homely feel. We hope to make a return visit in the future.
