Reviewers consistently mention the property's spotless condition and fresh-smelling bedding, indicating a high level of cleanliness that guests greatly appreciate.
The cottage's location is described as quiet and idyllic, with a picturesque village setting. Some guests mention poor mobile signal and the absence of local shops, which could be a minor inconvenience.
Guests find the cottage very comfortable, with a spacious living room and cosy atmosphere enhanced by a wood burner. One guest had difficulty adjusting the radiators, but overall, comfort levels are high.
The property is well-equipped and maintained, with thoughtful touches and a generous welcome pack. However, one review mentioned only one dog bowl provided for two dogs, suggesting a slight oversight in facilities for pet owners.
Many reviews express gratitude for the welcome pack and other considerate provisions, reflecting the hosts' thoughtfulness. It's important to note that such gifts, while common, are not guaranteed for every stay.

Lovely cottage well equipped. Welcome pack greatly appreciated. Good communication . Very quiet location unfortunately on our visit the pub was closed as changing hands but that didn't spoil our holiday. ( only my husbands birthday meal)Good value for money. Highly recommend. There was only 1 criticism it would be as its advertised for 2 dogs but there was only 1 dog bowl. (As it happens we always carry 2 in our car.)
