Beautiful cottage but there are stairs!

We loved the cottage which has been lovingly restored and superbly equipped. Great quality throughout. We weren’t aware that the bedrooms are upstairs but the bathroom and toilet are downstairs. We are in our mid-seventies and pretty fit but we did find this challenging particularly at night. Perfect if you haven’t reached the age of mid night visits!

Back for the second time - loved it!

Such a beautiful property with everything you need plus lots more. Candles, wood fire, breakfast provisions, luxury bedding and towels and such a lovely outlook onto the back garden. We love it and if the owners will have us, we will keep coming back. A luxury home away from home.

Beautiful, private, relaxing

This is a beautifully styled property that oozes tranquillity and relaxation. The bed was so comfortable, the fires cosy and the bath luxurious. We thoroughly enjoyed our little getaway. All of the extra touches (Jurlique bathroom products, delicious breakfast food etc) really made it special.

Beautiful, charming, luxurious well thought out cottage! Highly recommend

What a gorgeous cottage,garden and “studio” room at the top of the garden. From the special touches of drinks, cheese etc to the luxurious linens, throws, cushions, Jurlique lotions to the outdoor bath, studio games room with record player and the ‘goodness’ garden filled with all manner of herbs we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and plan on coming back one day. We felt utterly pampered with a lot of room, the yoga room, the massive indoor bath that when all the candles are lit and the French doors to outside are open feels like such a special treat and lends to complete relaxation. All of the extra special touches left for us were lovely and we had planned on going out for dinner but ended up cooking for ourselves as we just did not want to leave. The cottage was immaculate in cleanliness and every need catered for and having two log fires was an absolute treat. Having travelled extensively throughout the world this host had everything just right and it was good to find such a high quality stay in our own home town. A massive thank you to Cheryl for all her special touches.

Blown away, an incredible stay

We absolutely loved staying here. Every thing was so well thought out. The property itself is very big, with lots of great hang out places. The infrared sauna and large bath tub were a stand out. Great quality products sprinkled around the house and incredibly yummy local produce provided for breakfast. Will definitely be back!
