  Wow! Where do I start?! We have stayed in cottages all over the country and this gem of a place has been the best! Lovely helpful owners who told us about some fantastic place to visit. The welcome hamper was amazing and the freshest eggs from the cottages new chickens! The cottage was so comfortable and cosy and had everything you could possibly need, set in a stunning little village. The walks from the cottage were superb. If you don’t fancy cooking there are numerous places nearby to eat for example Millers farm shop for breakfast and snacks and a little shopping, to Tuckers thatched pub just a few miles away. I would recommend River Cottage Kitchen in Axminster for an evening meal, delicious! Over all I would absolutely return to this cottage. We simply did not want to leave! Thank you 😊

  Really nice cottage, although all on different levels the rooms were spacious, clean and comfortable. Bathroom was beautiful, but in the basement, this meant having to navigate the winding narrow staircase down two floors from the bedroom, definitely not for the faint hearted or anybody slightly infirm. Superb welcome hamper was very welcome. Safe easy parking for the car. Small but well kept village location, nothing there but the Kings Arms pub, which was very welcoming serving good food and dogs welcome. Long drive to anywhere of interest along narrow twisting lanes for miles. Craig who met and us on arrival proved to be a very good and always on hand when needed. Overall a pleasurable three day stay. Fully recommended, but not for anybody unsteady on the legs because of the stairs.

  A warm, welcoming and cosy cottage in a really well connected area.

  The cottage and garden are very well looked after. The garden has an amazing bbq hut, which we didn't have time to use, but next time... I have only marked down the accuracy of listing because the way garden is photographed and mentioned doesn't fully explain the reality. The garden is separated from the house by the public driveway that gives access to the other houses. While on the surface this doesn't seem an issue, if you have a dog you can't just open a door and let it out into the garden. You need to leave the house, cross the driveway, unlock the gate and then you are in. Unfortunately for us it was pouring with rain, so it just made it a little more of hassle than ideally you would want. Not a deal breaker, just good to be aware.

  A beautiful holiday cottage, plenty of space and good surroundings.

  There was a fab welcome pack which was a lovely touch. What was so good and helpful was that everything was set up, ready to use (things like bins and lots of spare bin bags, tea, coffee, sugar etc) which made it so easy to just arrive and get cracking, esp with two young children. If you weren't aware, the upstairs bathroom cold tap doesn't work and therefore running a bath for the kids had to be done through the shower (as the hot tap was scolding hot v v quickly), or we used a jug to tip cold into for speed. The BBQ lodge was a lovely alternative place to hang out and the children loved the ducks on the stream. Was a lovely week, a well set up and appointed cottage. Perfect, thank you.

  We were happy with the property and it was clean and as described.

  Feedback is only helpful if it can improve others experience, so I will mention the following. We saw a reference by someone else who stayed about a welcome hamper. Just to be sure, we checked with yourselves and had an email back from Michaela-Jayne on 18th April that this was the case "owner does supply a hamper" We appreciate it is at the discretion of the owner but as we arrived late on a Sunday afternoon when shops were shut, we were disappointed at what we found. The hamper consisted of a pint of milk and a lemon drizzle cake. I hope you would agree that this was hardly welcoming. We left all sorts of basics at home like bread and butter etc. It did spoil our first day.
