“An absolutely wonderful time in the cottage.”
Right from setting foot in the door and being greeted with a welcome tray and a lovely personal touch of a card welcoming us in, right through to a well maintained, impeccably clean home. With 3 difficult-to-please children, I was delighted to hear nothing but praise for the house from them, to the extent that they didn't want to leave! A great place in a lovely setting perfect for any time of the year
Thank you so much for your lovely comments………. I’m so pleased you and your family enjoyed your stay
