“Very clean and cosy cottage in a lovely quiet area.”

Jenny is the perfect host

Jenny is the perfect host

- Mrs Jones, September 2020
“Lovely cottage in a really quiet location.”

Ideal enclosed garden for the dog. The owner Jenny left us the nicest lemon drizzle cake I've ever tasted and some milk, eggs (from her chickens) and flowers. Despite being terraced, you couldn't hear a thing from either side as those walls must be a couple of feet thick. Its a great location, ideal as a base and I would highly recommend.

- Mr Harvey, August 2020
“Bank House was absolutely gorgeous.”

Beautifully decorated and furnished with lovely personal touches. Jenny was always on hand if we needed anything and made us feel very welcome. In such a quiet hamlet - perfect to get away from it all, but only a few miles from town. Lovely countryside and walks. Only short drive from local beaches too. Would Definitely recommend and will be coming again. We didn’t want to leave!

- Ms Nussbaum, July 2020
“Bank House is a real gem of a property to stay in, particularly in the cooler months.”

Beautifully decorated, great features and home comforts, cosy log-burning stove, plenty of mod cons but in the surroundings of a traditional cottage. Jenny’s finishing touches of fresh flowers, home made cake and freshly laid eggs are the icing on the cake, alongside a personal but unobtrusive welcome after arrival.

- Mrs Burrows, February 2020
“This was a Christmas booking and the cottage had been decorated perfectly for us.”

We were also welcomed with homemade cakes, wine and mince pies. Perfect. Thank you.

- Mr Drinkwater, December 2019
“Very clean, everything we have at home and in a brilliant setting”

- Mr Standing, August 2019
“The owner went out of her way to make us welcome and it is such a lovely out of the way cottage, but lots of places close by to see lovely walks.”

- Ms Smith, June 2019
“Simply beautiful secure dog friendly cottage set in an idyllic peaceful location.”

Lovely decor and furnishings, spotlessly clean with thoughtful touches. Welcome pack upon arrival was much appreciated. Jenny the owner made us all feel very at ease and was fantastic with our staffy bull. Thank you so much.

- Ms Holway, May 2019
“Lovely cottage in a beautiful setting.”

This was our 4th visit to Bank House and we hope to visit again next year. We took our dog this time and he was made very well and we had some beautiful walks.

- Mrs Morgan, May 2019
“Bank House is the best equipped and cleanest holiday cottage we have stayed in.”

Jenny really makes you feel welcome and takes care to make the cottage cosy and comfy. The double bed is seriously comfortable. A few great walks straight out of the front door.

- Mr Petch, November 2018
“Bank House is extremely well equipped, every consideration made for guests, even four legged ones.”

The standard of decor and comfort is outstanding. Owner Jenny is very welcoming and friendly.
