Such a beautiful place to stay, wonderful cottage with everything you could need, tranquil garden and a lovely meadow to walk round, we even had a mother deer and her baby come through the garden at night, we would highly recommend the cottage and will definitely be returning for another holiday hopefully for longer. The owner went above and beyond to make our stay a wonderful experience.

We had an amazing stay in this wonderful cottage, the warmth and style of the cottage made us feel so at home. The garden was so lovely to wake up to and have our first coffee of the day. We have never stayed in such a well accommodating cottage, everything your needs would desire and more. Penny was a charming host and I was sad to leave this tranquil place. We would certainly recommend it highlyâï¸âï¸âï¸âï¸âï¸
