Fantastic cottage in a lovely village near to many great walks. We arrived late, on a cold night, so walking in to the heating on and a bottle of wine in the fridge was hugely appreciated. The cottage is very spacious, the best equipped kitchen we have ever stayed in while in a holiday let, the en suite shower is amazing and the bed was very comfy. Everything works and is very comfortable. Our dog loved exploring the enclosed garden. We won't hesitate to come back!

Fantastic home from home, with everything you need to enjoy your stay. The shower was the best we've had in a holiday property. Comfy beds and homely decor. The village has all you need, with a bakery ,who do takeaway pizza on a Wednesday, really well stocked nisa, butchers, Indian and pub, fish and chip shop, all a stones throw away. Only downside was the stone stiles on the local walks, as our fluffballs are on the large side ( malamutes) they didn't make it through ! Outside hose and side entrance, for those muddy paws, much welcomed.
