A lovely long weekend in Water Cottage which had everything (and more) that we needed. The beds were very comfortable, the kitchen was well equipped and the cottage was warm and cozy. Nice to have the scones and cream on arrival, plus some doggy treats. The lane was very muddy but there had been a lot of rain!

The cottage was excellent, very clean and comfortable and a great location in the town. Lovely touch to leave scones, cream and jam, that was very much enjoyed.

we had a great holiday. the cottage was clean and comfortable, and would come back. some of the beeches that state are dog friendly may not be suitable for people with disabilities. Also trying to visit the beech at Lee was like a white knuckle ride, as the road was just suitable for 1 car and that was tight.
