The location is highly praised for its beauty, tranquillity, and suitability for dogs, with easy access to local attractions and nature. The walled garden and surrounding countryside are particular highlights.
Guests have mixed feelings about comfort; some find the cottage cosy and the bed comfortable, while others criticise the furniture and suggest it is due for an update. The overall experience is deemed average.

We'll definitely be back to stay with you again, however if I may suggest to upgrades to the place on general. The driveway is only accessible with a 4 x 4 or a SUV, if I'd brought my other car, then it would have grounded on several areas of the drive from the main road. However, upmost importance is to have a mirror placed on the opposite side of the road at the entrance to the property. Twice I was almost involved in a collision simply because you cannot see along the road to safely pull out onto the road. Otherwise, what a stunning property and location. TY for our stay.

But aren't we all! Quirky little house, great place for a long weekend! Great property the dog loved to be able to run around. The hot water takes a while but you get used to it.
