We had a lovely stay at this cottage for our anniversary over New Year’s. The rainy weather made it extra cosy, and we were pleasantly surprised by the board games and puzzle provided, which were perfect for relaxing indoors together. The cottage was clean, warm, and thoughtfully set up. A wonderful, peaceful getaway that we would happily recommend.

Angela was a very responsive and friendly host.The cabin was very tidy and well equipped. It was very comfortable and warm with a gorgeous view of the sheep and a couple of cattle. My only disappointment was that we were too early in the season for lambing We will stay there again .
