  • "Very nice clean and tidy cottage."

    Kitchen well equipped. Garden was great for the dog and totally secure. Fantastic and thoughtful welcome basket with treats for humans and dogs. Comfy beds. The only comment I would make, and this is a personal opinion is that the toilet is downstairs in the wet-room. Not ideal but that happens to be the layout of the cottage.

    Thank you for your positive comments. We're always pleased to know guests staying at Lavender Cottage have had a good time. Property Owner
