  • "Barley cottage is a lovely modern, well equipped property with fantastic outdoor space."

    Catered for all of our needs, including the dog - these extra touches were much appreciated. We had a fantastic Easter weekend and would highly recommend the cottage!!

  • "Super cottage, well equipped, very comfortable and beautifully furnished."

    The added little touches, the welcome basket of goodies, the basket of games, doggy treats plus bed and towel, all contributed to making us feel valued guests. The garden design was lovely and although we didn’t manage to sit out for long the children loved the deck chairs! Lovely and quiet, plenty of nice walks close by , great when you have a dog on holiday too. One of the best dog welcoming places we have stayed in, a real credit to the owners.
