The location of Humphrey’s Cottage is perfect for a wholesome weekend away with friends with family or even a couple. The hosts are so welcoming and kind, the property itself is clean, beautifully done up and such a beautiful setting. I highly recommend doing the wine tasting/tour with Simon who was a lot of fun to talk to as well as Lou. Our firm favourite was Humphrey their beautiful golden retriever who was such a joy to meet, we loved him a lot! It’s fair to say, great stay, great amenities, exactly what we needed. Thank you!
