Wonderful

We had an absolutely wonderful stay in Dillon Cottage. From our check in with the furry butler, to when we left, we thoroughly enjoyed the cottage.Everything we needed was there and Jeanette was a brilliant host.

Comfy stay in Nelson

Anne's 'secret garden' apartment provides comfortable accommodation for 2 guests (with a quirky loft for a third). It has been thoughtfully fitted out and updated. Breakfast was fulsome and most welcome. The centre of Nelson is but a short (15-20 min) walk away.Highly recommended.

Practically perfect in every way

Harriett's Cottage is quintessentially quaint! Perfectly located in the heart of the city in a historic and super pretty street. Eva has fitted out the cottage in such a thoughtful way, tastefully decorated with high end facilities such as the Smeg coffee machine. Bedding really comfortable and the bathroom was excellent. There is a fun sofa in the bay window at the front which is a lovely spot to relax in. All in all a simply perfect set up, can't fault a thing. Thank you for having us!
