Spacious and well equipped cottage. The location was great for us, next to a bar with live music and fresh pizzas, perfect for an evening dog walk and drink after. Lots of pubs and cafes nearby.

Beautiful property in a gorgeous village. The layout and design were wonderful and all of our party commented on the dining conservatory; we'd love one in our own homes. Lovely listening to the rain pattering down or the sun beaming through. The hot tub was a real treat too and easily fit 6-8 guests! We'll be returning very soon, I'm sure.
