By Sonya on 27-May-2025We had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway. The home itself was beautifully presented, spotlessly clean, welcoming, and full of character. The gardens were absolutely stunning, with so much space to enjoy, and clearly very well looked after. It was the perfect place to relax, especially with our dogs, who were made to feel just as welcome as we were. The property is genuinely dog-friendly, which made our stay even more enjoyable. The host was fantastic, extremely responsive, friendly, and helpful throughout. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would love to return in the future!
