    Spotlessly clean, with everything you need, well equipped kitchen, etc. Hostess even supplied some fresh baking! Only downside was that the bed in particular would benefit from modernizing.

    What a delightful little cottage, magnificent scenery and views with spectacular walks and cycle ways. Close to all the cities but far enough away to enjoy absolute privacy & relax. Loved the special touch of the Easter eggs thank you for sharing your bach.

    Loved the cottage and the view. The location was perfect for our visit, checking in and out was a breeze, and the cottage had everything we needed - fridge, linen, toaster, kettle etc. Old but well kept cottage. Will definitely be back in the future.

    Stunning views and such a cute cottage to stay in. Great off street parking and a very easy check in/out process. Have raved about it to friends and family

    Comfortable accommodation. Could be improved with better linen (bath towels,) as we're not absorbant and rather tatty. Heating needs to be more than an oil column heater and had a very small hot water cylinder, hence a very short shower and had to wait 15 minutes until someone else could shower. Communication was poor with owner, as damage was done to our rental car and no responsibility taken since it was done on the front lawn of the property.

    A good and cosy place for a short weekend away from the hustle and bustle. Set in a quiet neighbourhood, it was clean and tidy with all the amenities you need. The welcome snacks were a lovely touch and the host was very nice and accomodating.

    perfect setting and we loved it, a little upgrade of the shower would have made it even more perfect
