This is a lovely building. Full of nice touches. Everything you could need for cooking and washing. Lovely summerhouse but garden very overgrown. Logs only provided in winter season. Nowhere to hang coats in hall as suggested on website. Was a gas BBQ but no gas bottle in situ. As previous guests commented Driveway is very tight and it is a narrow Read moreroad. But we would stay again when in the area. Would give it a 4 overall. Hide

Beautiful property in a peaceful location. The entrance is very narrow - we had to reverse in- but we managed! The house has been very tastefully refurbished, but is ready for a coat of paint! The rear garden is stunning ! We would definitely visit again.

A superb property in a fantastic location, we had beautiful weather all week so hard to beat that combination. Very comfortable property with a secure garden front and back , it really did feel like our home for the week rather than a holiday let. We would definitely return and would love to come during the winter to get the seasonal contrast. TherRead moree is building work next door, but it didn't really have an impact. The bedrooms are flooded with light in the morning, so a sleep mask may help! Hide

Cottage garden is beautifully laid out and full of colour. It is however showing signs of 'neglect' which will only get worse if a regular gardening/maintenance plan is not implemented. Cottage does not have a 'information book'. Subsequently refuse bins are full/overflowing as renters do not know when to put the 'bins' out.
