  • "We had a lovely two night stay in November at the hut."

    The hut is very well kitted out, warm and comfortable. There's lots of bonus storage space under the bed too. Our hosts were very friendly and welcoming and made us feel at home straight away. My little dog was extremely happy having his own fenced garden to run around on, and we were delightfully surprised with the proximity of a sweet little canal and excellent local pub. Would highly recommend :)

    Thank you so much for your very kind review. We loved having you here & really happy you enjoyed yourselves. We hope we might see you again soon & your adorable dog! Property Owner
