The cottage was warm and welcoming on arrival with lovely christmas decorations and a basket of goodies. The log burner was perfect for cold evenings. It was ideally positioned for sightseeing. The local pub across the road is ideal for an evening meal or just drinks. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend it.

The cottage was all & more than we expected with attention to detail & everything provided to make it a home from home situated in a charming village. Property owner was very welcoming & provided lots of information on areas to visit in the locality. The local shop is incredibly well stocked & the local pub, The Church House Inn only yards along the road from the cottage was warm & welcoming serving excellent food from a wide menu meaning there was no need to travel out of an evening for a meal.

Beautiful cottage. Well equipped and exceptionally clean. A gorgeous, tranquil garden. The village was picturesque, a very handy community shop that stocked all essentials, lovely village pub and great walks. Maddy and Geoffrey were perfect hosts and the bottle of wine upon arrival was a lovely gesture. I could not fault this property and would highly recommend. Hope to revisit some day soon.
