Summerseat is spotlessly clean and so comfortable. The hosts have thought of everything anyone could want so it really did feel like home from home. All the amenities, furniture and appliances are absolutely top quality. It was a lovely thoughtful touch to find a welcome gift of milk, chocolate cookies and even a bottle of Prosecco ! Angela sent us a text with key code information in plenty of time before we arrived. Itâs a really good location and we were able to visit several areas easily. Daughter and family have stayed here twice so it already and deservedly came highly recommended. Itâs the best weâve ever stayed in and have already booked again for next Summer. Thank you so much Angela.

Absolutely fabulous holiday home in every way from furnishings to central location, a lovely garden with table and chairs which was a sun trap late morning and afternoon, this is not a criticism but the walk in shower really should have a grab rail as the base of the shower even with the mat was difficult to get out of, but we had a wonderful holiday with the most lovely weather

The place was beautifully maintained, with all the amenities we needed for a comfortable and relaxing weekend. The location was perfect, offering peaceful surroundings and easy access to local attractions. The hosts were welcoming and attentive, ensuring that our stay was nothing short of wonderful. I highly recommend this cottage for anyone looking to unwind and enjoy a quiet getaway. Would definitely return
