A wonderful cosy little hide away for a winter break. The fireplace kept things nice and warm and the view over the valley was great and constantly changing. The procession of birds outside the window was a delight.

Romantic Getaway

What an amazing property, so tranquil and quiet. The details and little touches are fantastic. Particulary loved the outside daybed , spent a lot of hours into the night/early hours of the morning with a wine/tea talking about all sorts. Highly recommend if you are looking for a great place to bond and connect.

Relaxing getaway

The property was overlooking green farming land which was a lovely view. There were many birds to watch and I now know what a superb fairywren looks like. The cottage has everything you need and the king size bed was very comfortable. Thank you Michelle and Peter.
