Very relaxing stay

Character cottage in an extremely convenient location, yet still nice and quiet. Pretty garden areas to sit and relax and a well-stocked kitchen. Very friendly host who met us on arrival. Would definitely stay at Ambrosia Cottage again.

Very clean and nicely decorated cottage with all amenities. We were warm and the beds are very comfortable. For two friends from different towns who wanted to catch up and relax for a weekend it was perfect. Very close to the local shops. (And we can certainly reoommemd Ahoy for fish n chip!)

Lovely Peaceful Abode

There were some lovely surprises with this place. One was the provision of breakfast - not expected but gratefully received. Secondly was just how clean the place was. It was lovely! Then of course it is so close to everything!! Thank you we had a great time.

Cottage

Cottage was a lovely little place though mirrors bed head could do with a clean, dead cochroachers and flys not a good look, drive way and garden over grown not good for classic cars. Tree leading to house needs cutting back .

Winery

Cottage had not been serviced by the time of our check-in at 2pm. The cleaner arrived soon after the owner was contacted. The issue for our group of 70+ year olds was the first step of the entry steps. Too high off the ground to go up and down. One of us misjudged it, landing heavily & strained his ankle.
