Water and Wildwood - The Bothy Cottage

Großzügiges gemütliches cottage mit Garten und Billard Tisch

Anfahrt etwas rumpelig

Such a cute farm cottage only a few miles from the small town of Muff. It was easy to find since Marie provided directions that were spot on. The cottage itself was well appointed and comfortable. In fact, we had a day planned where we were going for a short drive to see other sites. However, the Bothy Cottage was so pleasant, we stayed close by and relaxed "at home" for that day instead. It was a perfect break from our agenda!

Beautiful spot, in beautiful surroundings. Peaceful and quiet, ideal for our purposes.

The shower is tiny, but the property was stunning

Absolutely everything, from the location to amenities and the owners are absolutely incredible.

There was absolutely nothing not to love.

Had a nice backyard.

Why is it people in their advertising try to hide the fact that this cottage was not private? The photo doesn’t show it was on a working farm with noisy machinery running during days we were there. We had rented this cottage for a relaxing quiet couple of days. We wish these self cater cottages would have places to put your suitcase on or possibly even towel racks. And we had to wash dishes before using as plates were stuck together. Also, no fire pit and the BBQ was tiny with no briquettes.

The area was lovely

When arrived at property could not get in there's a safe box which keys are in it was pouring down with rain and cold and the safe box was stiff and difficult to get into especially when it was wet when I phoned for help all I could hear was a pub atmosphere and made to feel like a nuisance for asking how to get in which was not good start, property is not well kept, there was clothing left from previous visitors and a horrible smell in the property upon arrival which I thought was dampness. We were out a lot of the time visiting places over the 3 days only there to sleep when leaving on the last day I was sitting on the bed getting ready when one side of the bed collapsed as the screws came out which I didn't make too big of a fuss about I just wanted to let the owner know before their next visitors arrived. The next day I received an email from the owners saying they will be in touch regarding plumbing costs and their next guest cancellation cost due to baby wipes being flushed down the toilet which was strange as I didn't even bring baby wipes to the property. This explains the horrible smell at the property on arrival. If you are going to stay at this property I recommend thoroughly checking it all the way through and taking pictures or reporting anything to the owners as they don't seem to check when guests are leaving unless you bring something to their attention.

Not much to say apart from this place is amazing. Its exactly what me and my partner where looking for a warm, homely cottage in the country and this did not disappointment. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Only thing i could say which wasnt a problem is that the shower is a bit small but it didnt affect us or the night away we had which was great.

The atmosphere of the cottage is very welcoming and relaxing. The hosts have left out some games and a book of local attractions which is very thoughtful. Unfortunately everything was closed because of the red weather warning however we had plenty to do inside from the board games to Netflix to playing pool. I'd definitely recommend it as a quiet get away.

It was a bit cold for the first day until the heating managed to warm up the house.
