Lovely cottage located close to lots of great walks, rivers, pubs etc. and we had a brilliant time. Road noise and lack of view from the garden (very high hedge) were a bit of a shame, but we were out and about much of the time, and if it hadnt been so baking hot wed have shut the windows at night which would have been better.

The carpets are a bit tired..but as we were in and out in pouring rain I was glad they were not immaculate. I choice the cottage as I have mobility issues and find stairs difficult. So having a bedroom and bathroom downstairs was great. Unfortunately the only was into the house was down stairs to the garden and then up to the house. There iRead mores a step from the kitchen into the lounge. There is quite a lot of noise from the A40, so sitting outside isn't as relaxing as I hoped. The beds were comfy and the shower was ok. It is a private water supply to dont expect a power shower. I was fine with that. Hide

The cottage is in an amazing location, lots to do with local walks, towns and beautiful views! Very quiet location, lovely garden although not full enclosed on the side leading to the dual carriageway so our dog had to be on a lead when outside. The cottage is comfy and cosy with a lovely fire. Quite dated inside with furniture, soft furnishings anRead mored carpets etc needing updating. Was not as clean as we would have hoped, lots of stains, dust and dead insects on arrival. With some TLC this could be an amazing holiday home in a perfect location. Hide
