Perfect relaxing getaway!

Myself and my partner stayed for 2 nights at Holly Lodge in the ‘Sunset View’. We had such a relaxing time, just what we needed! We brought our dog with us too and he loved exploring the massive garden. The accommodation is in such a beautiful setting, tucked away within the trees. The property itself was lovely, the bed was so comfy and the shower and bath were both great! Stephen was so accommodating, quick to respond to messages and we even had some breakfast goodies left for us on arrival which was a nice touch. Will definitely be back again in the future!

Beautiful Place and Location

This Sunset Cottage was beautiful. Quiet and cozy. The view from Balcony was amazing. It would have been even better if the weather was great then I can imagine the sunset view would be quite amazing. Although it rained we still enjoyed because the fireplace kept the lounge nice and warm. Absolutley gorgeous place
