  • "Unfortunately the downstairs shower leaked when in use and we suspect that the smell of stale water was as a consequence."

    The kitchen equipment was in areas basic and sparse (except for the Ninja food processor!.) There wasn't any microwave cooking or casserole dishes, minimal mugs, lack of a knife steel or equivalent, badly worn frying pans etc. Instructions with the cooker, microwave and dishwasher would have been useful. We consider that the property suited the needs if our family and Sarah responded quickly when contacted. We would happily return.

  • "A safety note, the main stairs are dangerous in that they are polished wood and extremely slippy to the point my partner slipped badly on the top steps and fell down and broke her elbow."

    The stairs need carpeting or anti slip strips fitted .

    This is one of the cleanest, if not THE cleanest property we have ever stayed in, we were expecting to have to have a quick clean around as it is a pet friendly property, but for the first time ever there was no need as it was spotless! Very comfy beds and a great location means that we will definitely be back.

    Everything was very good. It was lovely to come back to a warm house after being out. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well placed for everything. It’s in a very rural place and therefore we felt very safe and the whole holiday felt a complete switch off from the current news regarding the pandemic. We hope to return. Many thanks to Sarah and her staff.

  • "It is a very comfortable and cosy cottage."

    The heating was much appreciated during a November visit. There is no level access to the cottage, both back and front entrances have steps and although it does not claim to be suitable for the disabled the existence of a ground floor bedroom might lead one to expect that it was. Perhaps this should be made clear in the details.

    We had a wonderful time and most asked if we could do the same next year. The under twelves took full advantage of the garden and playroom. We all walked in countryside that I knew very little about. We were even given permission by the priest-in-charge of the beautiful church next door to hold our own family service on Sunday.A thoroughly good time had by all

    The setting was rural and quiet which suited us. Quite a trek to shops so would recommend that people take initial supplies tea, coffee etc. The games room adequate but would benefit from an update. Would definitely return to this cottage when staying in the area again.

  • "A really spacious and comfortable cottage."

    Had a brilliant open plan living dining area which was excellent for socialising with friends. The beds were really comfortable too. The sofas and other furniture were of excellent quality. My only little criticism is that is desperately needed a coffee table in the living area as with three sofas there was no where to put cups and glasses when sitting down. For the ultimate cosiness a rug to make it ultra snug. The bottle of wine was a nice gesture and much appreciated. Also the short walk to the pub was and excellent bonus. Would definitely come back again. A beautiful location in the Autumn with fantastic scenery and peace and quiet.
