The hot tub and private garden are frequently highlighted as highlights, along with the added enjoyment of craft workshops. The retreat's ability to provide a peaceful escape with thoughtful touches is highly valued by visitors.

There is no specific mention of cleanliness in the reviews, so it is not possible to provide an accurate score for this category.

The location is highly praised for its tranquility and beautiful surroundings. Guests appreciate the privacy and the natural wildlife, including sightings of green woodpeckers and deer, which suggests a serene and picturesque setting.

The comfort of the cabin is well-regarded, with guests mentioning a comfortable bed and a cozy living room. However, one guest noted the sofa was showing its age, indicating a slight room for improvement.

Facilities are generally celebrated, especially the hot tub and craft workshops. The well-equipped kitchen and garden space are also appreciated. A few guests mentioned low shower pressure and a desire for a larger sofa, which slightly affects the score.

The hosts' thoughtfulness is frequently acknowledged through mentions of welcome baskets and special touches for occasions like anniversaries. While gifts are warmly received, it should be noted that such personal touches, while common, are not guaranteed for every stay.

    This is a charming rural retreat; totally private and a haven of peace and nature, with the addition of the hot tub to relax into after an active day out.

    3rd stay and just as brilliant as the first two times! Hot tub is excellent, especially at night with the fairy lights. And reading on the veranda during some sunny days was perfect!

  • Stephanie and Mark

    A beautiful, spacious, cabin with everything you need for a very relaxing, private stay. The cabin was clean and well equipped. We slept very well in the comfortable bed. Lovely gardens and the hot tub was extra special. The welcome treats were a nice touch. Thank you x
