We were made very welcome by John and hadall we needed for a very comfortable stay with our two dogs. There were lots of little touches that added to our good experience-including welcome bags for each dog and more than adequate continental breakfast. We would highly recommend a d stay again. Thank you

Perfect for a couples weekend away! Excellent stay thank you all! So nice to sit on a terrace looking at the beach and sea, whilst eating a very good breakfast.
Booked with our 12yo Labrador. Stairs were a tad steep but she was happy being carried up 😁
Staff are very helpful and the location is just stunning!
We will be back

The breakfast was superb. It was so nice having a breakfast that was individually cooked and delivered to the table hot.
The property is old and the floor in my room was at a slight incline. Not a problem at all but I did describe it as being like the house in the film of The Ladykillers - and that is with total affection as I love that film.
Ate in the restaurant on one evening - good food and a good price.
Would recommend!

Me and my partner stayed her after an event nervy at River Cottage. The lodge was in a beautiful location and perfect as only ten minutes away from where we were. It was very cosy, comfortable and clean. We only stayed one night but wish we had stayed longer! It's a perfect little hideaway but still not far from nearby villages and towns. Lovely!

Photos and description don't do it justice.
What an absolute delight and beyond.
Furnished like a show flat but it's the little detauls that really make this: the cotton buds/pads in the bathroom, cereals in the cupboard, milk and yoghurt in the fridge...
But also the often overlooked items in reviews like the shower - great pressure and heat, towels were big, fluffy and robust, more than enough hangers in the wardrobe....
