Great stay and walks by the canal.
Great stay and walks by the canal.Admiral Nelson Pub is a must with first class food. Cottage is small and quirky but everything you need for 2 people.The wood burner is a bonus too.

Had a fab weekend in a stylish beautiful Cottage.
Had a fab weekend in a stylish beautiful Cottage.
The owners live on site, but you wouldn’t know it, as it feels so private.
Sitting outside, overlooking the countryside, it was tranquil and very just so relaxing.
The bed was comfortable, although pillows not great- with hindsight we should of taken our own pillows. I did intend to, but forgot to pack them in the car.
Lovely walks all around and we had a nice stroll along the canal and around the marina.
We would love to go again, and would highly recommend.

Perfect for a quiet escape with walks on the doorstep, and local pubs and cafe within walking distance. Neil, the host, was extremely friendly and helpful, and made us feel welcome immediately upon arrival.
We are certainly planning to visit again.

Really gorgeous location.
Really gorgeous location. This cottage is small, but who wants to stay tucked away indoors when you have nature knocking at your door?! Lovely fields with a canal at the bottom. Owner is helpful and nice too. I actually took my old 21 year old cat here for a holiday, so animals are welcome.
