    From arrival until we left we felt we had picked the perfect location to stay as the photos don't do it justice. The property itself is fantastic with everything you need to relax, unwind and snooze. To us it is just the right size for 2 people and 2 dogs although the only thing that was missing was a pizza cutter

    Thank you for your lovely feedback. We love hearing that guest had a great stay. Pizza cutter ordered from amazon arriving tomorrow. Property Owner

    It was very central to area we were visiting, and Molly's Bit was a very comfortable base . The property is ideal for two, and very clean, comfortable, well maintained, and well equipped.

    We were aware there was a shared garden but from the photos expected it to be bigger. Didn’t realise the conservatory was so close to their back door so when they sat outside we were looking straight at them. Also there was a locked door from the cottage lounge to their property which meant we could hear their conversations and dog barking. We knew the kitchen was compact but it was extremely small. If there had been a picture of the front of the property we wouldn’t have booked it. The private parking was a narrow space on a gravel drive. The shower was very weak and the bathroom needs updating and cleaning more thoroughly. The lounge is comfortable and cosy once the curtains are drawn and the TV is very good and drowns out the noise from next door,
