A real feature of the lounge is the fantastic wood burner, making this property ideal for a cosy getaway in the cooler months. Continue through into the fully equipped kitchen/diner which has everything you need for a self-catered break, allowing you to make use of some of the incredible local produce you will come across whilst out exploring. The dining table will comfortably seat your group of four and has views across the garden and the surrounding countryside beyond. Also, downstairs you will find a useful shower room.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and it was a nice surprise to see there is actually off road parking right opposite the cottage and the village pub was just steps away. The cottage was immaculate with top quality kitchen ware and appliances, very nice touches and great attention to detail. I did not even know towels that soft and luxurious existed.

The cottage was lovely and cosy, warm and comfortable. We had a great family weekend away and loved the fact we could adjust the heating when necessary. The log burner was a bonus. Loved the garden too . The welcome pack was excellent and the cakes were amazing. Thank you.

Totally lived up to the 5 star rating! We arrived to very generous welcome treats. The cottage is beautifully furnished to a high standard. The beds are very comfy and both bedroom windows have green countryside views. The property is close to the road, but it was very quiet and we could not hear the cars inside so it did not disturb us at all. PleRead morenty of spaces to park just opposite the cottage. The village pub is so close you can see it from the front gate. We would love to stay again. Hide
