  • "Lovely homely cottage."

    Love the downstairs layout giving plenty of space in the open plan kitchen/dining area but with a cosy lounge/reading room with a central log burner. Perfect for the dog as well as the secure garden.

    This place is incredible for those looking to escape the city and enjoy some peace. The entire property is completely equipped, from the lovely home to the charming hamper basket. We stayed here from the 24th to the 26th of March and were hoping to book it for Christmas, but it's no surprise it's already booked. Amazing host with great attention to detail, the most comfortable bed, a beautiful and cozy cottage, and a private garden. We will be back soon. The biggest thank you for such an amazing stay.

    We were so impressed at how much space there was. This property is all enclosed so can let the dog off the lead. We had a wonderful time. Loved sitting in the garden letting the dog and our little girl play. The views are amazing so relaxing and tranquil. The finer details with this property is just on another level. There was milk in the fridge, a little hamper of food such as eggs and cereals. There was a high chair for our daughter and also a carry cot so we didn’t need to bring ours. Everything we needed was right there, even board games which came in handy when it started to rain. The property is situated close to the nearest town which you could walk to but we drove. We visited the monkey forest as well which was about 15 minutes away, worth a visit. I honestly can’t fault it just wish we had booked for longer. We will definitely look at booking again in the near future. Loved everything about our holiday so thank you very much.
