    “Lovely stay!”

    The cottage was warm, cosy and inviting and accommodated our 2 border collies. The back garden is enclosed which is ideal for the dogs. The owners are lovely and so helpful. They were at the cottage very quickly to help with the boiler, that was not working properly after a recent service. There are lovely walks for the dogs close by and good to have the Fox Inn pub next door too. Highly recommended!
