A delightful quirky cottage with undulating floors, curly staircase, doors that won’t shut, doors that won’t open! Kitchen well equipped and bathroom facilities quite adequate. Location was delightful with easy access to Bletchley Park and Stowe Landscape Park. Also we had a good evening meal in the village pub! Delightful short break. Thanks Mark.

Perfect little cottage for a family weekend. Well kitted out, nice size sitting room for watching a movie / playing a board game in the evening, and comfortable beds. Good and efficient comms from the owner. If you are visiting an event in the local area, a very cosy and easy base.
