Booked The Little House for a week to celebrate my partners birthday and spend some time with the dog and it was perfect. Had a lovely week, house was brilliant, hot tub was brilliant on the cold nights, underfloor heating was a bonus. Lots to do in the surrounding area, and nice places to walk the dog.
