"Olwen made us feel very welcome, and provided us with additional logs which we were very grateful for!"
The house is in a gorgeous location, and it was lovely to sit in the hot tub watching the fog roll down the valley! There were a couple of quirks to the property which, whilst they didn't hamper our enjoyment, could be tweaked to ensure that everything was totally perfect! Firstly, the dishwasher door doesn't close easily, and requires a bit of jiggling and strength. Secondly the mattress in the downstairs bedroom has a decided dip in the centre which meant for some close encounters in the middle of the night ;) However, these would not put us off coming again!

"The cottage was absolutely wonderful and the views were just spectacular."
Olwen was a great host and was so helpful giving us tip of things we could do around the the area with our little ones. Our border collie just loved the area around the cottage, she was in her element. I have to admit, it's one of the best equipped kitchens I've ever seen at a holiday let. Wonderful mini break away for our little family and would certainly stay again in the future.

"A week spent in stunning landscape and an easy drive to shops and mountains."
Plenty of local walking. Lovely host and their hot tub was divine.
-
"This is an attractive property in a very private and idyllic setting."
Very quiet and we were blessed with wonderful weather, so spent much time out of doors. Great bird spotting area including buzzards and red kites. The kitchen area was well equipped with a range of pots and pans plus cooking aids. Owners friendly and quick to respond to any questions or problems. Good beaches less than an hour away and excellent food at The Brigands for a night out. Would definitely return.

"Brilliant. But maybe it should say on the description that the approach road is very steep and bendy - one member of our party came in a small car that struggled with this."
Otherwise, couldn't recommend it more highly IF you want somewhere off the beaten track where nature is your neighbour.

"What a lovely cottage it had everything you needed and the views were amazing."
Would definitely recommend going.

"The cottage is in a beautiful location and the owner couldn't have been more welcoming."
From this location we were easily able to visit other places and make the most of our holiday. It's a really lovely place and we're hoping to stay at the cottage again in the near future. Sue (Rooksbridge, Somerset).

"Absolutely lovely place, we will definitely be back for next holiday"

"The listing does not do this place justice."
It is incredible. From the farmhouse, to the location, to the views. And the neighbours (sheep and pheasants) are not at all intrusive. It may not have all the modcons (although it has more than enough), it more than makes up for it in atmosphere. Quaint, quirky and relaxing. We would go back there in a heartbeat.
