Beautiful cottage in beautiful surroundings. Owners extremely friendly and helpful. The games room is a superb 'extra'. Pool table in excellent condition, darts provided for both the adult board and the magnetic one for children. Also a huge range of games to take out for all ages. Only problem to note is access via narrow and twisty lane, but no problem for a confident driver. We would definitely come here again!

First class welcome and advice throughout our stay. Very remote location which suited us. The garden was beautifully kept and a delight to wander through. Can't recommend this cottage or owners more highly.

BUT, they have a big problem with damp in red kite. Though there was no mould visible, as soon as the door was opened the smell of musty damp hits you and it never left. We must have stunk for the whole ten days we were there because when we opened our cases when we got home the smell of it was severe. Everything had to be washed. I don't know what the answer is, other than to find the source of the damp. It's a very old building and could be rotten joists or something similar. It's very unpleasant which is such a shame because as I say the place is lovely. Even our bread that was stored in the bread bin provided, was actually wet and soggy, as was some of our food stored in the cupboard in the kitchen.
