What guests are saying
6 adults and a baby stayed for a 60th birthday weekend celebration.
The Forge was everything we could have wished for. It was super clean and decorated beautifully. The beds were extremely comfortable. The owners had kindly left a highchair and travel cot which were both also super clean, a huge plus. The space was perfect for our group and very sociable. The Forge was warm, welcoming and comfortable. We appreciated the logs and kindling provided so we could make use of the log burner. Would definitely recommend!
we couldn't find any info on how to use the heating - we didn't really need it but did want to put the towel heaters on - not sure if we just couldn't find it or it wasn't there?
Beautiful cottage, luxurious and only a few steps away from eateries and shops.
Extremely spacious and the interior is stunning. If you are a light sleeper, the road noise may impact you, as the roads next to the property are busy day and night. Will definitely stay again.
