Gorgeous location for a peaceful retreat

The cottage is a little bit dated but this is more than made up for by the very welcoming and friendly owners and the incredibly beautiful setting. There is a constant background ‘noise’ of lambs bleating, birds tweeting and pheasants calling, very relaxing. There’s even a very friendly pheasant who taps at the french windows for attention. There are abundant walks in the area and there’s nothing nicer than to do a long walk and then return to the cottage to sit in front of a blazing log fire with a glass of wine and a book. A very relaxing break and I’ve already booked again!

A lovely quiet location that was just a joy to be in.

A lovely quiet location that was just a joy to be in. The cottage was very cosy and had plenty of space for our two children (6 and 2) to play in. They especially liked being able to feed the lambs at the end of the garden! If you are one of those people that must be connected to the internet all the time you'll have some difficulty as the wifi was not very strong and the mobile network (Three) was poor in this location.

It was worthy of my the first item of our bucket list.

It was worthy of my the first item of our bucket list. And the cottage was more than we had expected. The life in it was nothing more than the conformity to nature itself!
