The house was ideal. It was spacious and had everything we needed. It is in a quiet spot but within easy travelling of the various sites and towns nearby. Rarely had to travel more than 30 minutes. There is a garden which was ideal for sitting in though the weather was mixed. Would like to be there in a sunny spell.

This cottage is immaculate, well equipped and very comfortable.
This cottage is immaculate, well equipped and very comfortable. Looks as though it was renovated yesterday not a few years ago. It is far more spacious than it appears in the photos. The location, at the end of a long track is peaceful and relaxing yet within easy cycling distance of several local towns and villages and is an ideal base for exploring the area.The owners are on hand if needed and are very accommodating, friendly and easy going. We would highly recommend staying at Marigold cottage!
Very clean, comfortable and well equipped cottage. Fantastic area for exploring.
Great! Something for everyone.

Blown Away!
We managed to spend our 3 days here with gale force winds and storm warnings but it was still lovely, clean and comfortable with lovely decor. We’d have liked food waste bags so that w e could recycle properly, and an earlier arrival time as we arrived in the dark and pouring rain and so had a struggle to access the key and the front door lock, but we had diligently waited until the allotted 5pm! Loved the llamas!

So great full to have found this location at such sort notice due to COVID-19.
So great full to have found this location at such sort notice due to COVID-19. We needed a change of 4 walls. Was a great base, so tidy and very well presented, a true home from home. When we return, will make sure we book both cottages and go with friends.
