“Fantastic stay”

Reviewed 6 Sep 2022

We had a wonderful time. The cottage was exactly what we hoped it would be and the whole family enjoyed being together as well as having their own space. The cottage was very clean and we were extremely well catered for with towels, milk, tea bags etc as well as the bonus cake. The views of the lake were stunning and the hot tub added an extra touch of relaxation to a wonderful surprise birthday weekend trip. Thank you so much. We would definitely stay again.

Response from the owner I just love the thought you would come and visit us again as you were such lovely guests. I think our house martins are on the 3rd brood so we have even more flying around in the evenings at the moment along with the bats and other wild life. Yes I agree they do make a bit of a mess, but I love the fact we have such a large colony that is helping them survive the tough times these birds are having at the moment. It will be sad to see them fly home to Africa but I'm sure they will be back again next year!
