The cottage was great, had everything we needed for the week and the hot tub was an added bonus! Marley the cat was a character and made us laugh every day when he came to the window for fusses - we also got to meet Hudson and poppy who were friendly

The owners were amazing and have thought of everything, friendly, willingly to help and interested in ensuring your stay was comfortable. Extremely dog friendly allowing use of the garden for exercise. The peace, quiet tranquil of the surroundings along with a homely cottage, hot tub and open fire meant we fully unwound and absorbed the relaxation we required.
