Perfect Country House

Our second stay at Clare's brilliant property used as a base as we visit with family in the area. From the moment we stepped into the house, it feels like home! Clean, well equipped and comfortable for our family of four we can't wait to get back next year (if not before!).Thanks to some fantastic weather, we were able to get out for some lovely evening walks this time and take in the stunning countryside - it's just the perfect Country escape!

Absolutely beautiful. I didn't want to leave. The cottage is just so amazing, and the views are fabulous. It was so pretty, I just cant describe how i felt when i first arrived it, it was almost magical. The kitchen was massive with everything you could want. The dining and living rooms were beautifully decorated. The bedrooms were perfect too. Just lovely.

Great stay at a stunning - albeit quite remote - property. Everything was spot-on - although double bed needs a much better, higher mattress as flush with top of bed sides.

Great place with real character

My young family (and our dog) loved our stay at this beautiful cottage. It was really spacious for a family of four (+dog), yet also full of character. The enclosed outside space was huge, and our Hungarian Vizsla dog loved running around the garden and horse paddock. It's a great spot from which to explore too - we went on lots of lovely countryside walks from our doorstep. We had a wonderful stay!
