“The cottage was really nice, we've stopped there now 2 weeks in a row, worked really well being in main part of the town, train station round the corner and nice restaurants up the road. Excellent, would certainly stay there again.”
“Great little place in a perfect location. We had a Mercedes CLA and managed to squeeze it in to the parking space. Really convenient having the high st so close. Will definitely stay again.”
“This cottage was spotlessly clean and comfortable. Because of it's age it had lots of character. Tastefully decorated inside. Easy access to the town centre. Effective use of space.”
