Cottage was absolutely lovely, perfect for our Hen Weekend, plenty of room, excellent kitchen/cooking facilities Our only slight issue was with the hottub, the button for the jets was really difficult to use, we ended up with them off most of the time A doormat near the patio doors for people coming out of the hot tub, and a fire pit would have been lovely
Helen
It was just perfect! Everything was as describedâ¦and the delicious cake left for our arrival was a lovely touch. The kitchen was very well-equipped and the beds very comfy. The sunsets from the lawn were beautiful and helped us capture some wonderful photos. Highly recommended! Thanks again x

It was a lovely break, allowing everyone to be in the same place at the same time. There are lots of pubs a couple of minutes drive away & about 15 minutes walk. The only 2 things I can think of as an improvement would be; ⢠back garden being fully fenced off rather than the wired fence. ⢠bath mat to prevent it getting slippy after a shower Other than that the experience was lovely and the views are fantastic.
