"Lovely secluded cottage but just a short drive to town for shopping."
Very nice garden for people & dog, we saw lots of wildlife including pheasant & deer in the garden. Towels were listed but not provided at the property so had to go to town to buy them as couldn’t call property owner as there is no mobile service. Bed was comfy & house was welcoming. We hope to return soon.

"Rose Cottage is in a stunning setting - the cottage was very clean and everything you need is provided including wood for the log burner."
We were very fortunate with the weather and loved sitting outside watching & listening to the wildlife in the garden and trying to guess each species of bird. There are lots of beautiful clean beaches just a short car drive away but there are also walks from the door. It was lovely to meet Caroline-the owner, who also gave advice on local walks and also thanks to her for the Wine & Cakes - delicious. I would have no hesitation in recommending this cottage to anyone who wants to get away from it all for a quiet break in the countryside.

"The cottage was beautifully situated in an idyllic setting with fields and woods."
The cottage was fantastic with every possible device to hand. The kitchen had everything necessary, the living room with log fire was so comfortable, and the bedrooms had plenty of space and electric blankets to keep you warm. Ample supply of logs kept the cottage warm when needed. A picturesque Summer house in the back garden was a treat. You could sit and have tea and read or play cards. You looked down towards the cottage to watch the many birds constantly feeding from a substantial bird feeder which attracted a pheasant and the elusive red squirrels too. I forgot to mention there was a modern television which kept you informed of the latest news. I managed to get a signal for my mobile phone within the cottage and a stronger signal in the Summer house. I would recommend the Rose Cottage highly.

"Good bits. Lovely cottage in a beautiful area that is clean and well equipped."
Bad bits. No Broadband. Stove is too big for the room so lounge is unbearably hot whilst rest of the property is luke warm. Had a power cut one evening and overnight. Only realised the following morning that the electricity supply is by coin operated meter and didn't bring a supply of coins. Should have been made clear in the description beforehand so you can plan ahead and avoid any inconvenience.

"We had a lovely holiday, rose cottage was lovely we loved the fact it was near woodland and the amount of wildlife we spotted was amazing."
We saw deer, woodpeckers, hares, squirrels and pheasants all in the garden. We went on some lovely walks in the area with our children and dog and then came back and enjoyed the log fire on an evening. Lovely time we would definitely return.

"We very much enjoyed every aspect of this holiday."
The cottage was spotless when we arrived, and all amenities were available. Mrs. Jamieson, the owner, was very helpful, and kept us informed about the work being carried out by the utility company. The bird feeders in the garden attracted lots of different species, with pheasants and rabbits also paying a visit. We would highly recommend a visit to the lighthouses. The views out to sea and cliff faces are stunning. This was one of those holidays that we didn't want to end. All in all a great experience.

"This is a delightful peaceful cottage with beautiful walks around it, ideal for summer, however can imagine in colder months could be cold, owner does have electric heaters and plenty of these but you will have to pay extra on the electric meter for them although 7 pound is put in meter on arrival, as she so rightly says this is to prevent heaters being left on when there is no need however property only has 2 storage heaters."
All in all I would definitely return in the summer months,
