A lovely hot tub to soak away the strains of the day. Wifi is intermittent but hey who needs to constantly go online when away from home. Bed is comfy but maybe the sofa needs replacing - not a great height for the tv or that comfy. We had snowfall that froze over so getting up and down the lane wasn't easy for us -- being in a van we had little space either side which normally would be ok, but when icy could be a tad iffy. We stayed put for a few days with our provisions and when ice started to melt and after hubby had done some chipping of the major icy areas and had put some grit down we were ok to leave. All in all though a great little place to stay

Booked for my partners 30th as a surprise and we were both blown away with the amenities, the views and the peace. Plenty of lovely walks around and a lovely village not too far with a very friendly pub. Both us and our dog Luna had the most amazing weekend - even if she hated the peasants!

Such a lovely setting and the cottage as before was very comfortable and provided everything we could need. A very relaxing cottage to unwind in after many long walks with our dog.
