Had a great stay. Cottage is very clean and well equipped. Very cosy and in a great location. You have everything on your door step. Food is amazing at both recruiting Sargent and the rising sun. Customer service in both pubs is fantastic. Owner Kerry is great on communication and on hand for any issues and concerns. Would I go back, most definitely.

Wow what an amazing cottage, it was immaculate, clean and couldn't want for anything. The attention to detail and how everything you needed was there. It was just like being home-from-home. The location was also great, with everything in easy reach. We had a brilliant weekend and will definitely be booking again in the summer. Thanks Kerry you have an amazing property at Lavender Cottage **
