The cottage was lovely, so clean and welcoming. Easy to get into - given we arrived very late. We had a 1 year and 3 year old - it was lovely that Marie provided a high chair and travel cot - making our luggage a lot less. Also the provision of children's books was fab. The TV had all the usual apps that we could also sign into via our accounts. All in all a very good stay.

Good Cottage

It was a lovely stay and local area was nice. I recommend the pickled pheasant pub. The bike shed was full so we couldn’t use it unfortunately. The house was very cozy with lots of blankets, nice stay. Great views too.
