Helpful resident neighbours, nice garden area if a little cluttered. The cottage is small, clean and comfortable as described. Recommend the local pub, The Red Lion, a 500 yd walk down into the village, good food and a good selection of beers and wines.

Lovely, comfortable cottage with everything needed. The location is especially relaxing in January, when everything is so peaceful. The proximity of dog walks is hugely useful, too as our dog refuses to go anywhere apart from on a walk! Thank you for a really de-stressing escape in comfort.

Just enough room for two adults and two young children. Sofa bed also very comfortable. Gardens Lovely. Nice location set back from road. Nice to have dishwasher and washing machine. a great base if you don't have kids. Bad points: not all that private as you can hear next door on both sides. A little cramped. Although garden was lovely found it difficult to relax as there in a dog often out in the comunical garden who was known for being aggressive to children. Although there was a private garden you have to walk past the communical garden to get to it - with two kids its a bit awkward. For that reason alone I wouldn't come back because of having young kids.
