The cottage was lovely and cool in the summer heat, and it was great to be able to sit outside in the mornings and evenings. It was cozy and comfortable, and had all we needed.

Such a wonderful cottage.
Such a wonderful cottage. Quirky and ancient but with all mod cons. Joan is a lovely host. Such a quiet location, ideal for a tranquil getaway. The stove in the sitting room really puts out a lot of heat! Even in winter without using the lovely garden we thoroughly enjoyed every minute. Thanks to Joan and Jim.
