By Lily on 24-Jun-2025Lovely little place, very comfy, well appointed and has everything you will need for a cosy and comfy stay. Ashwell is a sweet village with a lovely high street, nice walks and good pubs close by for food and drinks. The cottage is well equipped and has all the basics, the beds are comfy, and the shower is good, we had a peaceful and restful visit, just what we were looking for - everything went smoothly. Nicki was great to deal with. Recommended!
