      Lovely cottage , comfy bed , great location and oh so quiet. Everything you need for a break away with or without your furry friend ( dog ) . 30 minutes from beaches , some lovely pubs and a great Indian take away a mile or so away.

      Had a lovely stay at owl cottage, very quiet in a nice setting. Nice to see the muntjacs through the kitchen window whilst doing the washing up.

    • Mr Kirby

      A lovely quiet cottage, with a nice garden & outside seating. We appreciated the kitchen having a suitable number of plates/pots/pans etc. The instructions should make it clear (in advance!) that BBQs aren't permitted in the garden, even if that's reasonable given the thatched roof.
