The cottage has a regular visitor in the shape of a gorgeous and very friendly tabby cat called George - he's in charge of Meet and Greets. He loves people and likes to come and say hello. He was found as an abandoned stray in the hedge at the cottage. He now lives in sublime comfort in the cottage opposite but likes to visit. We would not want him frightened or shooed away and for that reason the cottage is only suitable for people who are comfortable with a friendly cat coming to say hello.
