The Cottage was very modern, the kitchen is one of the best kitchens we ever had it before, and the bathroom floor was fantastic got the heater on to keep your feet warm, King size bed was great, but the mattress is a bit soft for us, and the bedroom was close to the main road.

The property was beautiful, in a great location and the owners were incredibly helpful and always easy to contact and in contact every step of the way. Lovely kitchen and bathroom and the most comfortable bed I have ever slept on. My only negative feedback are both very easy fixes, that being a few of the globes need to be replaced as they would flicker a fair bit so we had to turn them off and the front gates don’t stay closed as the bottom lock doesn’t reach the ground, which, in a pet friendly place was a problem as we couldn’t let our dog outside without being on a lead. Other than that, the property and overall experience were amazing and I wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again thank you so much for having us!!!!

The house was perfect! We loved everything about it. The bed was comfortable, the kitchen had everything we needed and the location was perfect to our needs! We were so grateful that the aircon was on when we arrived as it was a very hot day! We will definitely recommend and we hope to get back again one day!
