“Great place to stay”

Reviewed 18 Apr 2023

This is a lovely spacious cottage in a lovely setting. The hosts have thought of everything you may need. We used this as a base to travel from visit relatives, ideal location. Very reasonable price. Will go back again. Host Helen made sure everything was ok, a lovely lady. There were beautiful cherry trees close to the cottage, out in full blossom.
