Just what we wanted. Comfy beds and furniture. Well equipped kitchen. Hot shower. Quiet but convenient location with parking. The neighbours in the little close are pleasant. Good value especially off season. Would love to come again.

We really enjoyed staying in the cottage. It was better equipped with cooking and eating utensils than many other cottages we had stayed in. The garden was a good size. There was a great collection of board games: the Belgian version of Monopoly was fun.

Rather smaller than expected, but warm and comfortable. Not suitable for a lot of dogs (low fencing, a main road on one side beyond the unsuitable fencing and adjoining fields on the other side, all too easily accessed for dogs with high prey drives). Beyond the property, there are no public footpaths for about 1/2 mile.

The cottage was very cosy and comfortable, the kitchen is well equipped. The beds are very comfortable and the rooms are spacious. The shower works well with good pressure. The road is incredibly busy and people drive quite fast so walking to the field to walk your dog is quite precarious.

Attractive cottage, easily reached by car from the town, road a big too busy to walk safely. Beds very comfortable. Cottage a bit darker than photos suggest but a good cottage for holiday being close to interesting places to visit.
