Great place to get away from it and the owners give you a superbly warm welcome and are genuinely helpful.
Marked down the local amenities because there really aren't any, but there is everything you need a short drive away and you can get some good walking in straight from the door - which was really more important for me than shops and pubs on the doorstep.
The garden is beautiful and you can sit out and relax or snuggle up in front of the wood burner. Really recommended.

We had just been in total lockdown for 4 months so wete in need of a weeks break Cath and Nick were excellent hosts .The cottage was comfortable and clean and well equipped if a little old fashioned. The garden was lovely and our dog was
made to feel very welcome .
There were a couple of places to eat nearby and several nature reserves .It was also close to the motorway for travelling further afield .The weather was good so we had a really nice time.

This was perfect and exactly what we were looking for, rural, beautiful and peaceful but central for all our travelling. Our dog was made welcome and hosts were friendly and helpful. We used the Wellington Monument for rambling dog walks in woods and fields and Wellington was a good size for banking and shopping needs.
Absolutely will stay again.

We had a great weekend break at Sparrows Nest. The cottage is nice and cosy with everything you need. We loved the log burner especially! The garden is lovely too. Nick and Catherine went out of their way to make sure we enjoyed our stay. We didn’t want to go home and will definitely be back again!
