The weather was hot when we stayed but the owners had provided a fan which was most welcome. Can imagine this would be a very cosy cottage in the autumn and winter months. Every room is spacious, clean, comfortable and beautifully furnished. Would definitely return as so much to see and do in the area. There was a slight problem but the owner dealt with it quickly and efficiently.

The kitchen was well equipped & the tea, coffee, milk & lemon cake left for us on arrival were much appreciated. Everything was as advertised, we enjoyed our stay and will definitely visit again.
