Very cosy Cottage in a delightful village. Well equipped and comfy bed. Plenty of wardrobe space and drawers. Bathroom floor slopes a little, but it is an old Cottage and adds to the character! Appreciate the stair gate at the bottom of the stairs for Doggies who like to escape upstairs!

Cosy cottage with everything you need for a base for a few days walking in the pretty Blackdown Hills. Our dog enjoyed the fully enclosed garden and we would recommend The Bell pub down the road! The only thing to note is the adjoining cottage has some noisy dogs, not an issue for our dog but if you have a reactive dog it might be something to consRead moreider as the other dogs tend to bark whenever you leave the cottage and sometimes early in the morning too.
