The host was welcoming and helpful.

The host was welcoming and helpful. The cottage was well situated for a quiet break but close to a good range of attractions. It was thoughtfully furnished and well equipped with particularly good provision for the dog. We had an anjoyable week.

The cottage was perfect for our needs and Vicki was a great host.

The cottage was perfect for our needs and Vicki was a great host. We have a bit of a nervous doggy but Vicki kept her dogs out of the fenced area while we were there so there were no issues there. Loads of beautiful walks in the area, perfect for the doggo! The cottage has a great little kitchen with everything you need and the bedroom and bathroom are excellent.

We booked this place with only a few hours notice.

We booked this place with only a few hours notice. The whole experience was absolutely fantastic. We received communication from Vicki very quickly who made sure she was present to meet us and show us around. The cottage was absolutely stunning with everything you could possibly need to start our break immediately. The property was immaculate and had easily the comfiest bed I've ever slept in. Vikki and Marque have impeccable taste and were fantastic hosts. We will definitely book in to stay again and highly recommend this cottage.
