We had a fabulous week in Wood Cottage. The house was spotlessly clean, the kids loved the garden and the woods, and the location is just amazing. Definitely the best holiday house we have stayed in.

Response from the owner Margaret - thank you for a lovely review. Yes, our caretaker is fastidious about cleanliness and cottage presentation - and even more so in the current pandemic era. I am only sorry we had to carry over your original booking from June 2020 to June 2021, due to the first Covid-19 lock down. I am so pleased it was worth the wait and we look forward to helping you with a return visit when the time is right for you.

Response from the owner This is obviously a wonderful review. We are very lucky to own and operate this holiday cottage. It is SPECIAL. I would like to confirm we did not have any previous knowledge or relationship with our guest - this review is therefore a GENUINE, UNBIASED and realistic take on the property and its amazing location. Thank you :) We also understand this was a honeymoon event - :) :). Thank you Jinni for your feedback it is really appreciated and valued.
