    we had a lovely week at River Bank Cottage and we are going again at the New Year, It was warm and cosy. I did find using the cooker a bit complicated. But what I cooked cooked well. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

    My partner and I have been going to the Riverbank cottage every December for the last five years. The cottage is perfectly situated on Franks Bridge with the river just outside of the window. The village is a two minute walk away where there are some beautiful bars and restaurants. We could not recommend this place enough especially at Christmas. Thank you so much to the owners for providing us with our perfect Christmas get away! Lyndsay and Stu x
