A beautiful cottage in a fantastic setting. The views from every window are amazing. The owners are so lovely and have thought of everything. They even gave us produce from their wonderful garden. Cannot praise enough and would definitely recommend.

Beacon cottage has a brilliant aspect, the views are amazing.
Beacon cottage has a brilliant aspect, the views are amazing. The owners are very friendly and helpful, their gardens are lovely. The problem for my husband and myself was that the owners lived adjoined to the property. They pottered around maintaining the gardens every day, some holiday makers enjoy the interaction, we don't. As mentioned previously, the cottage is very well equipped and really clean. The fixtures are fittings are top notch and the master bedroom has spectacular views. The drawback for us that it was open plan.......no door/curtain or anything at all separating the two rooms. That made that room unusable for us. Everybody needs some privacy sometimes.
