Great little holiday cottage perfect for our weekend.
Great little holiday cottage perfect for our weekend. Location was great though the road is busy and not great for pedestrians (coming from 20mph London we find it bonkers the speeds allowed when there are narrow pavements).Cottage has everything our small family needs and was a great base.
Property was as described except better. The cottage was clean and cozy and provided us with an excellent bolt hole while we had some building work done. Location was excellent for country walks as well as for the restaurants and shops in the town centre.

Wonderful.
Wonderful. Highly recommend. We had the best experience. Wanted for nothing.
Lovely warm, cosy cottage - it's a pity the weather didn't match it!!! The owner was friendly and helpful and the town pleasant with plenty of places to eat.
This was an ideal stay - the house surpassed our expectations and was really good value for money. Every bit of space has been designed fantastically and it was a beautifully quiet, excellent stay. The restaurant/walk/activities suggested by the guide book are a lovely touch as are all the little additions around the house. Would definitely come again and would have loved this stay to have been longer!
