Lovely to wake up tucked away in the trees. Drive way was a bit tricky to navigate in a larger car, but otherwise all good!

Cozy place to stay
The property was comfortable and a beautiful place to stay. It was a beautiful and clean house with a lovely view and gorgeous surroundings!
However, the one downfall was the very steep driveway and very narrow street made parking very difficult. Mind you we do not have a four-wheeled drive but without this type of vehicle, I cannot imagine navigating this driveaway without issue. The property owners sent someone to help us as we experienced car issues because of this issue, which helped alleviate a lot of stress. I definitely think it is important to be aware of this and prepared for it to avoid anxiety or any issues because of it.

Well looked after!
Very comfortable and we felt well looked after.
The house was well stocked with board games, pantry items, cleaning products etc and we just felt they had thought of everything.
The cottage had a cozy feel but was plently spacious for our family of 4.
We felt the owners put a lot of though and consideration for their guest's. 5 stars!

A lovely stay
The property and location were lovely and we saw a family of deer just a few metres away on our last morning. The parking is a bit tricky (but managable:) ).
Thanks so much!
