Settle down at the dining table for two, pour your favourite bottle of wine and toast to your countryside escape.

The cottage has an interesting history and much time and effort has been spent by the owners making it into a lovely place to take a relaxing break. It features every modern convenience and the owners could not be more helpful or welcoming. Our thanks to them for a wonderful time.

Immaculately clean and beautifully presented. Jo, the owner, was very nice. We enjoy seeing wildlife and we were delighted to see a Brown Hare sat outside the cottage window! A drive along the local roads produced sightings of Red Kite, Buzzards and Kestrel. Also in easy drive of several nature reserves. We enjoyed it so much we have booked to come back later in the year.
