Other details to note:
There is parking for two cars on the road outside the cottage. Please be aware this is not allocated parking so cannot be guaranteed, but is not usually a problem. If you have more than two cars, please park the additional vehicles further up the road outside the pub car park, out of respect for our neighbours.
Please note – the parking is on the opposite side of the road, so there is no way of charging an electric vehicle at the property.
There is good, free Wi-Fi throughout the property (41Mb), but no mobile signal in the area.
A full basket of logs is included in your booking for use in the log burner and pizza oven, further logs can be purchased if required during your stay. Gas for the BBQ is also included.
Up to 2 well behaved dogs are welcome, on the understanding they remain downstairs and are kept off the furniture. We charge £35 per dog, payable on arrival.
Sorry, we don't allow smoking, including e-cigarettes.
Fern Cottage is a great place to celebrate a special occasion, but please be aware we are not a party venue. Please limit noise outside after 10pm.
