  • "We had an amazing holiday, and the cottage was wonderful - thank you so much."

    A perfect location (we were able to walk to Monk's House, Charleston Farmhouse, and Berwick Church) in an extremely picturesque village, and the cottage itself was ideal with beautiful rooms and garden. We adored the selection of books and artworks.
