  • "Amazing cottage, lovely views and a very kind owner"

    Reviewed by Pete5.0Aug 2024

  • "We would recommend the house, as it’s a lovely big house with plenty of space for socialising and comfy beds and stunning views with the best sunsets!"

    Nice secure area for the dogs to run around. Would be lovely if they could add a bbq area! However, a few little things let it down… the house could do with slightly more cleaning, lots of cobwebs! Also one of the larger sofa legs was broken when we arrived so this limited our seating slightly. Lastly, two members of our party got hot tub folliculitis quite badly despite following all the hot tub rules. The hot tub looked slightly discoloured and smelt slightly fusty, we presumed it was ok as we hadn’t been told any different, this got worse over the week we were there - not sure if this is checked every day. We informed the owner and sent them pictures but unfortunately haven’t heard anything back.

    The location is perfect, the owner (Rachel) could not do enough for us, it was very clean and looked after. We enjoyed a lovely tour of the working farm, and the hot tub was excellent. We will absolutely be returning!

    steeped in history, quirky & unusual. The bed was super comfy. We spent a lot of time around the kitchen table with the log fire on, the dogs loved it.

  • "This cottage was ideal for our family of 5 adults, 1 10 yr old, 1 infant and 2 dogs."

    2 double bedrooms and a twin room. Plenty of space outside for the doggies too. Lovely sitting room with log burner. Fantastic big party kitchen. Everyone loved the hot tub and the stunning views from the top garden. Bedding and towels were plentiful and comfortable. Bath robes were a bonus. The cottage is quirky but all the more interesting for that. Family fun playing hunt the light switch. The owner Mrs J went above and beyond to help us out when one of our doggos suffered a minor injury. Genuine animal lover and great person. Perfect weekend. We will be back

    There was so much character. The owners were really helpful, when we didn't have enough glasses on the first day, Rachel immediately came around with more for us. The house was clean, there were a lot of spiders but you can't avoid that in an old house like that! The beds were comfy, everything was easy to use and the hot tub was the perfect evening activity.
