..a home from home. The secure garden is great for dogs and the cottage itself had everything I needed. It was a pleasure to cook in such a beautiful kitchen. Comfy bed, great shower and lovely linens and towels - everything felt of good quality, nothing done on the cheap. The sofa, whilst of good quality maybe isn't the comfiest if you want to curl up and watch a film (it's quite shallow and upright) but this could be improved by maybe just adding a footstool for a little extra comfort. A great base for exploring and I'd highly recommend a visit to Hodnett Hall Gardens just ten mins away. I've stayed in many holiday rentals and Cow'ouse is one that I will definitely return to.

Warm, comfortable and extremely well equipped. It is the perfect place to relax and unwind. The private garden was great, lovely sunny patio to sit and watch our dog playing.

The cottage was well equipped, and we would definitely recommend this accommodation to family and friends for a quiet relaxing break. The local village is only a 5 minute drive away, with a small supermarket, bakery, butcher shop, fish and chip shop. We would definitely recommend the Fox and Hounds pub, great food and service + not too expensive. The host Pete was helpful and only a phone call away. Would love to return in the future.
