“A lovely place to stay. We had a great week. Walking distance to a great pub. House had everything we needed. I would mention being an older house there are a number of little steps up and down around the house and the stairs are curved and uneven. Not ideal for those with limited mobility.”

“Thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful cottage, it was so pretty and peaceful. It is exactly as described, it’s close to everything you need but also somehow feels like you’re away from the rest of the world, especially sat in the garden. We had a brilliant trip, thank you again.”
