Family forest holiday

Every year we take my father (who is now nearly 93) away on holiday. We enjoyed our week in John O Groat cottage but I feel that the fact that the cottage has very steep and quite difficult stairs should have been detailed in the description. He managed to cope with them but it wasn't easy. I feel that they would also be dangerous if a family stayed with young children.

Beautiful and private. alone in the Kings Forest.

Great secluded cottage, my family and I enjoyed the privacy and the wildlife. Deer, muntjacs, rBbits ND the most beautiful pheasants. We will definitely book another stay.
