We had a lovely stay at the cottage, which was well equipped with everything we needed.Our overall impression was very positive. The attention to detail and decorative touches made the cottage feel warm and homely. The downstairs rooms are spacious, and the layout good.The location is great. It's situated with cities, retail parks, and major attractions all within a short drive, while still being in a town surrounded by fields and public footpaths—ideal for dog walking.There were just a few minor drawbacks. Although mentioned in the listing, the lack of an enclosed outdoor space meant having to get dressed to take our dog out early each morning, which wasn't ideal when on holiday! The cottage is also located on a busy road, and many drivers ignored the 30mph speed limit & traffic noise could be loud. We stayed during a warm spell & had the windows open during the day, but needed to close them at night to avoid being disturbed. As 2 of the 3 bedrooms are at the front, they became warm overnight as a result.Our only other niggle was with the bathrooms. While it's good to have the option of a bath, the only shower is in the smaller bathroom. Adding a shower over the bath in the main bathroom would be a relatively inexpensive improvement. Even with just 3 of us staying, there was a queue for the shower each morning.Overall though, these are fairly minor points and don't detract from what was a very enjoyable stay.

The property was spacious, clean and well equipped. The gift basket of goods on arrival was also a nice touch including cereal and milk! Thoughtful. We had been traveling the country for a few weeks so nice to have a bath too! It was a homely cottage which was quiet. We would thoroughly recommend this cottage.

A great base to explore this part of the world! The cottage was very comfortable and had everything we needed for 4 adults and 2 kids to enjoy spending New Year together. Plenty of space for everyone, and a well-equipped kitchen.Co-op, bakery and playpark in the village all very handy and we discovered a lovely walk towards Dragonville along cycle route 14. Lynne kindly left the Christmas decorations up for us, a high chair & cot, and a welcome pack with a handy mixture of basics (variety pack for the kids and real coffee) and treats. Would definitely stay again.
