We had the most wonderful week long stay at the cottage . Town is just a short walk away. The national park is a short drive away. The cottage and garden is just beautiful! We would love to come back … and stay longer this time! Thank you for having us.

We LOVED staying here and will happily return. The photos don’t do the cottage justice. Beautifully decorated, every creature comfort you need, super comfy, nostalgic Billy Joel and Genesis record collection, lovely crackling fire, great location for Blackheath Village.
