Feeding the birds was my highlight. They are right outside the door.

We had a wonderful time at Dairy Cottage. The cottage has everything you would need for a short break. We very much appreciated the freebies together with the tearoom voucher. The cottage is set in quiet and peaceful surroundings yet it is only two miles from town where there is a supermarket, pubs .... We had a wonderful time at Dairy Cottage. The cottage has everything you would need for a short break. We very much appreciated the freebies together with the tearoom voucher. The cottage is set in quiet and peaceful surroundings yet it is only two miles from town where there is a supermarket, pubs and restaurants. In addition there are many places to reach within a short drive away. In addition it was lovely to see the volume of birds visiting the gardens bird table, thanks to the supply of seed and fat balls supplied by Chris and Eve.
