The cottage received mixed feedback on cleanliness. Some guests found it comfortable and in good condition, while others noted areas that had been overlooked and a need for a deeper clean. The presence of dog odours on sofas was mentioned, suggesting room for improvement.
The location is generally praised for its proximity to local amenities and attractions, with a friendly village atmosphere. However, several reviews cited traffic noise as a downside, which impacted the score. The scenic views and village charm were highlights for many visitors.

We found certain things in the kitchen needed cleaning before they could be use, oven trays, frying pan etc and some need replacing. Bath waste doesn't flow away. Heating needs setting up, it came on in the middle of the first night. Other than that good house economically priced.

Plenty of space. Lovely village location and we visited both the pubs which were really welcoming. Our only niggles were minor but the pillows definitely need upgrading and maybe some summer duvets. The garden is a lovely space but just felt it would have been great to have some chairs rather than just the wooden garden benches. We were definitely made to feel welcome and a nice touch with a yummy cake, milk and butter. We would definitely book again.

We had an issue with the heating but the owner resolved it very quickly and was really helpful throughout our stay there. We ate at the local pub (Kings Head) and the food was great. There is a good choice of shops in the village too.
