Beacon cottage; we had an amazing holiday. The scenery thus lots of rural places to walk . A peaceful environment if your wanting to take it easy. There are local cafes and a little shop on the same street . The house is kept to a good standard, clean and well equipped with necessary cooking implements. The bedding smelt fresh and the bed has a firm mattress. Extravagant with a food basket, was appreciated. Local neighbouring farms so lots of animals to see. I recommend beacon and would return. If you have pets , the garden is secure. Parking next to the house.

Warm, cosy and welcoming. Bed comfortable and cottage well equipped. Nice rural setting and stress free. Great for dog lovers and would recommend because of fenced garden and good parking. Very clean.
