Mrs Spooner
One of the best cottages we have stayed in. Spotlessly clean and furnished to a very high standard so understandably dogs are not allowed upstairs. Fabulous hosts who are friendly and helpful without being obtrusive. Rural location surrounded by fields with a secluded suntrap garden. What's not to love? 100% recommend.
