A lovely welcome to a warm cottage, box of biscuits and bottle of wine left for us, thank you. A Christmas tree had been decorated, a very thoughtful touch. Woodburner made it even more cosy. Kitchen was well equipped and we cooked our Christmas lunch there with no problems. We coped with the unusual bathing facilities, but would have preferred a pRead moreroper shower. Parking inside the gate only suitable for a small car, but we parked out front easily. Pretty village and a great pub within walking distance. Hide

We had a lovely short break in this traditional cottage . The weather was extremely wet so we were glad of the wood burner to help us dry out . Well situated and a well equipped kitchen . Lots to see in the area .

Lovely characterful cottage, very clean and comfortable (as long as you mind your head on the low ceilings!). We found it well kitted-out with everything we needed, while retaining some quirky tudor features. The unusual bathtub is great for a relaxing soak, but a bit of a struggle to wash hair. Otherwise would highly recommend.

A lovely quaint old cottage in a lovely area. Ideally central for lots of places. Floorboards were a bit uneven but we expected that. Low beams which I banged my head on several times and I'm quite short. Had a lovely meal at the poachers pocket - good prices and large portions! The welcome pack was a nice touch.

A lovely olde worlde cottage in a good location. Just watch out for the very low beams! The garden is very long and private, lots of nooks and crannies and a seat to enjoy the sun.

We also had a problem with someone (it turned out) from next door parking in front of the gates, which made it extremely difficult to get out and completely impossible to put the car back on the drive for a last couple of days.

Recently stayed in lovely Rosecot Cottage. Cottage is very accurately described in that it is quirky and attention should be paid to the floors and ceilings. However, we loved it, even after a couple of bumped heads!! Had everything there we needed, good location, great bath to tentatively get into although there is a stool to climb on. Log burner Read morehad an initial supply of logs which we used as even though July there were one or two miserable evenings. Villagers were lovely and ease of parking the car.

Rosecot is a super little cottage well equipped and comfortable. We loved our short stay there. It wouldn't suit everyone, I'm short and found myself ducking, the floors are uneven and the deep bath maybe an issue for some but if you enjoy quirky old houses as we do it's quite perfect. The garden is also a real selling point and would be lovely inRead more the warmer weather, all the kitchen equipment worked well and there was plenty of hot water, there was a very generous welcome pack that included milk, biscuits and cake. Even though it's just off the High street it was surprisingly quiet, we would definitely book again. The two village shops were a bonus. Hide

We loved the cottage and the surprise of finding peacocks roaming around in the village. If you have mobility issues though, the bath is likely to be a challenge. It was full of character and the garden was under played on the website - its a long beautiful garden.
