Beautiful setting - we saw hares, buzzards, kites, swifts, owls, pheasants, and enjoyed watching the swallows feeding at the nest above us as we enjoyed breakfast on the patio most mornings. Not to mention the Robin who kept us company! Cottage was lovely, with lots of attention to detail and very clean. Somewhere we could really relax. We'd also rRead moreecommend dinner at The Greyhound, just up the road. Hide

Great accommodation. Well laid out, open plan living area. Well equipped kitchen. All the bathrooms were well designed. Beds were very comfortable. The house was spotlessly clean. Would definitely recommend.
