  The Old Chapel is lovely, very cosy, well maintained and in a fabulous location for a variety of walks.

  The only criticism I would have is the same as most people have commented on and that is the parking. Whilst I know there is nothing that can be done about the space, there is some improvement that could be made. We have been to this property twice this year, the first time we used the driveway and this time the parking space at the front because we wanted to give our dog outside freedom of the driveway space. Although the parking is tight at the front, it can be done (even in a smaller 4 x 4). However, this takes a bit of manoeuvring back and forth to get it right with the wheels just about off the road. The problem arises when the tyres skid on the gravel which very nearly led to a scape on the wall. This would be greatly alleviated if both areas were paved rather than gravelled with a smooth slope to the edge rather than wooden kerbing. It would also eliminate the gravel being spread across the lane and having to be swept up. Whilst we were there, the Red Bull was closed but the Blacksmiths Arms, a few minutes away served good food. This time of year beware of ticks, make sure you treat your dog just before you go!

  Sorry to say it was like sleeping on the M1 noise wise.

  1. Several mornings we had at 7 a.m. industrual waste bins being dragged out on stones and left outside our bedroom window smelling. 2. The bed wasnt really big enough or 2 people so husband slept in the bottom bunk which wa difficut to get to as the room was very small and narrow. 3. The shower was a small cubicle with electric shower which was too week with hardly any power. This mad it hard to get wet. Being it was so small it was awkward to bend to wash legs and feet as door would fly open and was very annoying. Being a disabled person a grab rail would have been required and helpful. The cottage was also right by the edge of the road that there was road noise near on all night and day. Also the heating would keep banging through the night so all in all a good nights sleep was very very difficult. Finally we left after 4 nghts and came home and as we where meant to go to another place had to cancelland loose more moeyas they could not accomodate us for the 3 nights we needed. So holiday completely mucked and and approx £500 loss. Now sitting at home £500 lighter. GGGGRRRRR. Very disappinted and angry.

  The Old Joiners Shop, is perfect for a laid back break, The only drawback we encountered was that the chef at the local pub was ill and there was no replacement, hence no food.

  So cooking in-house became a must as most other restaurants were miles away - well about 6 actually. Which meant the hubby (driver) couldn't drink, not really a hardship, but ........ The cottage itself was beautiful, comfortable and really well decorated. All the kitchen equipment was in good working order, apart from the kitchen bin which refused to operate - being battery driven we checked for the life remaining - all was fine - just a really stubborn bin. I think I would go down-market for a replacement. We didn't get to meet the owners as they were away, which was sad because we would have liked to have complimented them in person. The only drawback for us was that everywhere we wanted to go had to be by car, although the beach was near, I couldn't get there as my legs don't work too well - hubby (70) and daughter (well over 21) made the trip with our ever enthusiastic dog.

  Having read a negative review about this cottage I have to admit I was a little apprehensive!

  My worries turned out to be completely unnecessary! And left me a little confused. I was expecting noise from the road which really thought I would notice as I live in a cul de sac, yes there was traffic but it wasn’t noticeable. The cottage is absolutely spotless, extremely well equipped, comfortable, superb location, quiet and relaxing. Janet & Steve you should be very proud of your little treasure If you’re looking for a nice relaxing break then this is the place to go, great walks right from the door the dog loved it, pub nearby which is dog friendly. Hope to come back one day!
