189 April Cottage

The property itself was very pretty and for the price we paid it was worth it. However, I found the place very unclean, the limescale on the kettles was very unpleasant and off putting. The shower needed an update and a good clean, it sprayed in every direction other than at you. We pulled on one of the curtains to close them and found several spiders that had clearly been there a while. I appreciate it’s an old building so the odd spider I would have let go but it should be a lot cleaner than it was. The bed was comfortable and the house itself was very warm for the time of year, both me and the person I was with slept well. Plenty of towels were provided and lots of books if you wanted to read. In cases of arriving in the dark I do think they should have written instructions on how to get there as it felt really dangerous driving down single track lanes not knowing at all where we were. As there’s a specific safe way to get there that is not made clear.

The only problem with this is that this is located in fields and was scared to death as no one at property and everything is self-service. Only stay if you are not scared of staying all alone in no man's land.

What a delightful gem, full of character, great location in the countryside, comfortable and a fabulous breakfast prepared by Pat who was lovely, will be back

Breakfast was really good

The room was cosy, the bed was comfy and the shower was amazing. It was also nice and quiet as we were in the middle of nowhere! However, we did have lots of cobwebs in our room and a rather large spider for company. I wasn’t that impressed with the breakfast as no alternatives were offered but my boy did like it. Didn’t find the hosts particularly friendly! My car also got boxed in so struggled getting my car out!

Excellent location, host and views. Such a relaxed vibe, due to the brilliant owner, who made you feel at home straight away. Definitely going back and would recommend to anyone.

The histiric cottage, views, breakfast and host Steve are all exceptional and we would have very happily stayed for longer if it fitted in our holiday plans.It is very a welcoming place and we were fortunate our trip coincided with some of his lovely family visiting him. Note if considering booking you need to be able to use stairs.

An absolutely lovely old building and I loved the books collection in the lounge and our room. It was warm and cosy and the conservatory is a lovely place to sit and relax. Also the lounge a lovely place to sit with a cup of tea and watch a bit of TV. It's in a quiet peaceful location and the host made us welcome and cooked us a lovely breakfast. Al in all a wonderful stay and when we can save some money, we will be back !

Quaint old building that seemed modern.
