"We had a lovely stay. Paula was super helpful and the property was well equipped. The birds that visit were a highlight. We’d like to return in future. "

"Property was presented in clean & neat condition, check in process was swift owner Craig was friendly and also advised some nearby attractions to visit! Wifi was good and large smart tv was a big plus as all the streaming apps were already installed. Electric cooker with solid hard plate is old can be replaced by a ceramic glass top cooker ! Close to main town centre but not walkable "

"Great location. Lovely room and nice staff."

"We asked for a ground floor room, were told we would be given one, and were put in a second floor room. The external stairs to the room were steep and not at all recommended for anyone suffering from knee issues. The room itself was fine, although there was no iron (which I only mention because I would've liked to use it, not a huge deal!). Microwave and fridge and crockery and utensils were great. The basin was outside the ensuite and doubled as the kitchen sink. It was quite large and perfect for washing up. There were no privacy curtains on the windows, so we couldn't open the drapes to let in natural light, due to the tradesmen working right outside our door. We found this to be a real privacy issue. The tradies knocked on our door looking for the owner, smoked outside our room and woke us at 7am, talking right outside our room. Obviously, the tradies won't always be there, and I'm assuming they're trying to give the property a much needed facelift, so the outside matches the modernised interiors. However, having them work on a Sunday is probably not a great idea, and customers should be informed that this is happening before they make a booking."

"Friendly staff, great place to stay."

"Nice location and peacful. Phone reception is bad and internet reception was almost non existent The tv didn't have any signal it couldn't connect to satellite.. There wasn't a canoe/kayak like described. For the fire pit I suggest taking a bag of fire wood/kindling "

"Really enjoyed our stay in the yellow cottage. It's simple and relaxing, at a nice spot 15 minutes out of Mansfield. The bread, biscuits and muffins were brilliant. Do recommend."
