Mamie M. Jul 26, 2023 12:55:49 AM
Summary: Really spacious living room, kitchen & master bedroom. I requested none fether bedding for one of the single beds, as I am allergic and this was done for us before arrival! Welcome hamper of milk, orange juice, home made bread, jam and home made biscuits! Really nice touch. All you want after a long journey is a nice snack and a drink (tea bags and coffee too!). Thank you very much Rachel, it was a wonder stay with a lovely view.

Summary: Perfect
Hilary J. Jun 13, 2019 03:02:36 AM
Summary: The cottage was clean and tidy and really spacious - the rooms were far larger than we expected. We spent much time every day watching the riverbank and the antics of the birds, the rabbits and the hens. The bed was very comfortable and the fod we bought from the owner was delicious.

Summary: My wife and i enjoyed our weeks stay at the cottage,I did a bit of fishing from the garden area.the only downfall was the nearest pub was about 2 miles away not a ten minute walk.
