Had a great week at Petals Cottage. Hosts were great.The view from the back garden was fantastic.This cottage is a bit out of the way in a small village. There is a small shop for essentials.We quite liked the isolation but the nearest pub is a short drive away.There are some great walks for dogs and the cottage is a good base for local attractions.Would I stay here again?Yes I Would.
