Comments from guests:

"Hello,

My wife and I and 2 kids stayed for 3 or 4 days over Xmas in your amazing cottage.

The photo's dont do it justice as it was such an amazing place to be and gaze out at the cows in the paddocks and be staying in a genuine old cottage.

When we arrived there was a Xmas tree waiting for us, this was a surprise and one as parents we are so grateful for. Having a Christmas tree for the kids  was special, our 3 year old first Xmas that she understood Santa and having a tree that lit up at night added to her excitement.

Your Mum popped in to make sure we found the baby cot and we had a lovely chat with her and learnt all about the history of the cottage. The local produce and coffee on arrival was lovely as was your wine.

Once again thanks for a special stay and the Xmas tree was such a nice thing to do. Please feel free to use this thankyou on your own website side as a a customer review."
