A quaint cottage in a very quiet location, perfect for accessing the beautiful walks from the doorstep. A good open plan downstairs with the bonus of a private sunny patio garden. Level off-road parking. We would definitely like to return for another holiday in the future.

Lovely little cottage. Be aware Place House next door is a wedding venue so in season you can expect at least one very noisy night! Apart from that it’s totally quiet. A few basics left would be nice, we had one J Cloth for all washing up, and one dishwasher tablet.. Logs and kindling for the stove was a nice touch but bring matches. We enjoyed our stay.

The location is great and the cottage has loads of character. There's a new kitchen but rest of cottage could do with some love and a deep clean.

We have just spent 5 nights here with our small dogs ,the courtyard is completely secure which was great for us. We had great weather and enjoyed many beautiful walks , didn’t use the car at all . So nice to come back after our walks and spend time sat in the garden listening to all the birdsong. Such a peaceful location to wind down and recharge the batteries. We are definitely going to book again.
