“. Extremely disappointing.
First of all, I cannot fault the cottage”
. It is large, clean, warm and comfortable. It has everything that we could practically need.
However, If you are expecting to relax in the garden and enjoy the wonderful countryside surrounding you, you won't find it staying here. The garden is completely surrounded by approx 10ft high hedging, a 6ft wall and mature trees and the only other thing you can see is the sky ! There are no plants/shrubs or anything of interest in the garden apart from grass. The hedge is so high that even from upstairs you can only view the horizon.
The photo of the garden, in my opinion, misleading. It is not as large as it appears. When sitting outside there is only approx 6-8ft until the next house. We could not sit in the garden or leave our door open because we could hear the full conversation of our neighbours (and they were not noisy neighbours).
If all you want is a 'base' then this cottage would be fine, but if you are looking for a view - then you will be extremely disappointed. We left after 4 nights (having paid over £600 for 7 nights.
I suggest the description should be updated to record the fact that there is no view. For us, it completely spoiled a holiday which we were very much looking forward to..
