Garden is huge and our young pup Jak thoroughly enjoying stretching his legs every day. Situated well for getting out and about and was amazing to see the peacock families most days and a deer in the woods to the side of the property. Thank you for sharing your wonderful home.

The Cottage is lovely and in wonderful surroundings with large grounds, peacocks roaming around very peaceful, The shower is not brilliant can use but takes a while for the water to warm probably due to wind power electric, cottage clean and comfortable, Mattress on the bed very soft could do with new one The Hosts lovely people very friendly

We have stayed a couple of times previously and returned because it is so good! Nice and private with great views across the adjacent fields. Bed and furniture very comfortable, well fitted kitchen and shower room. Got visited by the local Peacock and his family most days! Central location with easy access to the coastal resorts.
