A well appointed cottage with everything you would expect other than salt which has always been available at other properties. The heating was tricky, the instructions in the manual are incorrect for overriding it. My nephew worked it out eventually...I think you just press up and down arrows and make sure the flame is showing? The Devonshire Arms Read morewas excellent but The Charles Cotton Hotel on New Years Eve was appalling....never had such bad food....give it a miss. Hide

A superb conversion of a chapel into lovely accommodation, with a well-stocked and well-appointed kitchen, and with good views across to the church. All 4 bedrooms were comfortable, and the open-plan middle floor was ideal for our celebratory family gathering. Pub and village shops a minute or two on foot away .
