We chose this little cottage for its downstairs bedroom, secure garden and the ability to bring 3 dogs but this cottage has so much more to offer in terms of its welcoming owner, Wendy, and all the comforts of home that she provides. We loved the comfy beds and additional food, as well as the little extra touches, such as toiletries and the lovely Read morethick white towels, not to mention Wendys legendary lemon drizzle cake.

The cottage was small, but everything required to make a good holiday was there. Wendy supplied food to make breakfasts, tea, coffee, milk, butter, bread & cakes, plus toiletries. Comfortable furniture. It was in a road where the dogs could be walked easily & walkable to the Co-op & town. We really enjoyed our stay here.

Lower End Barn is a quirky cottage. The garden is secluded and pretty as well as being very safe for dogs which is the main thing we look for when booking.

A very warm welcome and lots of goodies (yummy lemon drizzle cake) from the owner Wendy. The cottage was very comfortable for the two of us and the enclosed garden was perfect for our dog. We didnt need to use upstairs, which is probably best suited to children or shorter adults due to the low ceilings.

As stated in information, upstairs is quirky re low beams, but specifically need to be aware that the bathroom would be particularly challenging for taller people.
