This is a wonderful place to stay. Very comfortable, clean and well equipped. The location is way off the beaten track. The only drawback is that there is not a pub or shop in walking distance. This is one of the best places weve stayed in ( and weve stayed in cottages in the West Country, New Forest, Wales, West Sussex, Norfolk and Scotland).

We stayed at Folly Farm Cottage at Easter. We found the Mrs Bradwell helpful and informative. There are beautiful walks from the property and within easy driving distance. The cottage is spacious, with a full kitchen. If we return, we will take food with us to cook so we don't have to drive out again in the evening. (For us and the time of year, itRead more was too far to walk out to eat in the evening) Hide
