Everything was excellent with the cottage, very comfy and clean, nice to have 2 sofas which made it easy for us to relax after long days walking, our dog was safe in the enclosed garden and the pub was next door with good food.Would definitely recommend.

We have just enjoyed an excellent stay at Haven Lodge. Very well presented and clean, a very thoughtful welcome pack and really useful information on where to access dog walking avoiding the main road. The road although busy is fully footpathed. Very cosy and comfortable, well appointed and excellent value for money. Great to access local places to visit would definitely recommend.
