Mrs Neal
This was our second visit to the cottage and it was just as enjoyable as the first time. Spotlessly clean and lovely comfortable beds. The owner is a lovely host who works hard to make sure you have everything you need for an enjoyable stay. The welcome hamper is very generous and the bottle of wine provided is always enjoyed outside on the decking in the sun after the unpacking, a great start to the holiday.
