Reviews
Small terraced house but with a big welcome - cosy, warm and well equipped so it had everything we needed but dining best done from trays. Super walking country for our dog nearby and loads to explore in our 12 days there. Very comfortable beds, TV in bedrooms and good internet - loved it and we'll be back!
Know this area very well as holidayed here as a child over sixty years ago. Stayed here for 2 nights found cottage really well equipped spotlessly clean, milk biscuits left out for us. Just found the table and chairs very heavy to pull out, but not much room to have anything else in place, could do with a gate at front in order to keep dog in, as couldn’t leave door open as he probably would have escaped, but we would still book again and although we had heavy rain on Sunday we still managed slit woods. Very friendly neighbours also
Beautiful interior. Advertised facilities missing. No parking, no WiFi . Dangerous access to property. Cramped indoors with dangerous floors and head height obstructions. No chairs, no teapot, no hotplate, steep stairs. No instructions for equipment, unable to use cooker, heating controls, etc. Neighbours at war with each other, no help. Booked 7 days, left after 3. Don’t go.
