A great break for our family of 7. Our hosts excelled in providing a happy holiday stay. They are friendly & communication was great. Home from home. The quaint cottage is clean & immaculate with attention to detail. Everything is provided for an enjoyable stay. The beds are comfortable & the hydronic heating was welcome on chilly evenings. The children enjoyed the magical fairy garden & our little pooch was well provided for. He was settled & ‘at home’. We have no hesitation in recommending the ‘Delightful Cottage’ which is well positioned to the town. Jenny & family.
