Lovely little cottage ideally located for our short break.

Owners were friendly and close by, they introduced themselves to tell us they were there if we needed them and then left us to enjoy our break. The house was clean and tidy and the owner had left a few gifts which were very welcoming. The house is on the high street so within walking distance of shop, cafes and pubs but the house is set back from the road so we didn’t hear any traffic noise. There’s also a lovely garden to sit outside if you get some nice weather.
