Guests appreciate the friendly and helpful host, comfortable beds, and the charm of the cottage's quirks. The separate garden area is a highlight, providing a lovely setting for relaxation.

Cleanliness
Reviews on cleanliness are mixed, with some guests finding the cottage clean and fresh, while others reported cobwebs, dust, and a need for better maintenance. The presence of both positive and negative comments suggests that cleanliness levels may vary, leading to a slightly above average score.
Location
The location is generally appreciated for its quietness and picturesque countryside, though some guests have concerns about the cottage being on a sharp bend with speeding cars. The proximity to local amenities and attractions is noted positively, but the need to drive for country walks and the parking difficulties slightly affect the score.
Comfort
Guests find the cottage comfortable, with comfy beds and a homely feel. The wood burner is a cosy addition for cooler evenings. However, some guests mention that certain beds are only suitable for small children, and the presence of a heatwave highlighted the lack of ventilation in one room, slightly reducing the score.
Facilities
Facilities are generally adequate, with a well-equipped kitchen and a good DVD collection. However, several guests mention maintenance issues such as broken cupboards, a rusty washing machine, and the need for better lighting. These maintenance concerns lead to a score that reflects room for improvement.
