  • "Beautiful location and lovely clean comfortable cottage."

    The view from the cottage is stunning. So many nice thoughtful touches. I had 2 dogs with me that needed to go on lead outside as there isn't a private enclosed garden but along the track and a short distance down a very quiet road was a lovely walk through the woods. A little waterproof shelter or box outside the door for muddy boots would have been appreciated. Thank you for providing us with a wonderful stay.

  • "The cottage was great."

    Was lovely looking over the lake. The only things I would say needs improving is the blind needs to be thicker as it let's light in and the bed is a little hard

    It was spotlessly clean with views that just speak for themselves. The view was from the patio doors and the bedroom window. There was all the pots pans and crockery you could need, even an ironing board should you need. Leaflets and maps of local area and a couple of books on local history. The owners were very friendly and helpful. We will definitely return and will recommend to everyone. If your looking for total peace, views and walks this is ideal
