The cottage's location is frequently highlighted for its beauty and tranquillity, with guests appreciating the quiet valley setting and proximity to local walks and attractions, despite some noting the challenging access road.
The overall comfort of the cottage is praised, with mentions of a cosy lounge and well-designed kitchen. However, a few guests noted the beds were quite hard, which slightly affected the comfort score.

Relaxing location which helped us to completely unwind from work stresses. Paul and Caroline couldn't do enough for us, and the cottage was fully equipped with everything we needed.

It is well equipped, tastefully modernised and with ample garden to keep our dog happy while we enjoyed the views from the sunny patio. The owners were very friendly and obviously gave some thought to the needs of their customers; all the knifes in the kitchen had been sharpened, which is a first for us in twenty years of staying in holiday cottages, take note Sykes !

The cottage was beautiful, clean and welcoming - treats for dog and tea/coffee provided. Lovely wood burner - the dog enjoyed laying in front of it after a days hiking; the beds, however were very hard and it was difficult to get a good nights sleep esp in the double bed. Owners lived next-door but were very unobtrusive; we didn't see or hear any of the other guests during our stay. Biggest bugbear was the 9am checkout, which if I'd have noticed this beforehand, would have prevented me from booking this particular cottage, especially as we had to clean, clear and sort out the recycling etc. before we left, leaving the cottage as we found it - owner was around just after 9am to make sure everyone was out. This made the last night/morning a less than relaxed experience which was a shame on an otherwise pleasant break. All in all, some easily rectifiable issues which would make this cottage a 10/10.
