I had a great stay at this property. I wanted to be in the country but close to the city. This was perfect. Angela the host was lovely and the fresh farm eggs were a treat. Very well equiped tiny house with a lovely outlook.

We had a lovely stay at this cottage for our anniversary over New Year’s. The rainy weather made it extra cosy, and we were pleasantly surprised by the board games and puzzle provided, which were perfect for relaxing indoors together. The cottage was clean, warm, and thoughtfully set up. A wonderful, peaceful getaway that we would happily recommend.
