We had a lovely stay at Owl Cottage! It was quiet and comfortable. Louise gave excellent directions, which made it easy to find the place. We enjoyed relaxing in the lounge on a rainy day, the kitchen was well-equipped, and the location was excellent for exploring the surrounding area!

Owl cottage is spacious in a great location and has a lovely home feel to it. We would definitely recommend it and are thinking of returning at a different time of the year. Our only suggestion would be to get some of the pot holes leading up to the cottage’s filled in.
