A very nice old house. We had no problem but the steepness of the stairs would be difficult/impossible for some use.

The website was unclear about parking - make it clear that this is on street. Provide instructions how to use gas cooker.

The cottage was large enough for our needs. The beds were super comfy and the entire place was very clean. The shower was good (and clean) and the kitchen had what we needed. There was also a dining table which was nice.

There was nothing that we didn't like at the property!

A very old house full of character and hidden staircases. The heating made the whole house very welcoming and we weren't short of space. The wood burner made the lounge the place to be in the late evening. All bedrooms were of very good sizes, we would have used the second bedroom if it had the double bed so as to enjoy the views from the rear.

An extra lamp at the rear of the lounge would make a big difference. Despite location, neither of us could get usable mobile coverage (EE and Vodafone). The free wi-fi is clearly located next door and offered fleeting service at best, nothing really useable.

My goodness everything! The cottage was huge and very comfy! the house was 600 years old and fantastic.. the kitchen and dinning room were perfect and the garden was great to sit in and watch the chickens and ducks and other wildlife. the host lived next door and was very helpful and pleasant to talk to. the little village had a shop that we utilized for our groceries all local sourced fresh food. the beds were comfy and the living room was perfect to sit and relax with a cupper and have family time. Definitely worth staying. next trip will be longer

parking is a premium however just a small walk when you find a space. but that just added to the experience and charm.
