"Cosey, modern cabin with everything you need!"

10.0

Really modern, the light remote was good. Really cosey and some really nice things. (Special shoutout for the Yorkshire tea!)

No microwave (not the end of the world)

"Cosy Cabin"

10.0

We had such a fantastic stay in this cosy cabin. Amazing views, comfy bed and a fire pit for cold nights. The "echo" speaker was also handy for check out, loved the song. The toilet/shower block is outside but we had great weather so this didn't bother us.Great communication from Phillip and Christina.

"Exceptional"

10.0

We really liked how clean, tidy, and beautiful the place was. The firepit experience was also a highlight that we truly enjoyed.

The only thing we didn’t like was the toilet setup, as it was a bit inconvenient having to go outside and use the key, especially at night. But overall, the place has a really good vibe and we enjoyed our stay.

10.0

Private, quiet, beautifully set up & decorated. Super comfy bed & pillows. Tech, ‘Echo’ super bonus. Great communication from host very easy check in & check out.

Nothing to heat food indoors even a small microwave or air fryer. A toaster would have been nice too & a small hair dryer.

"Awesome!!"

10.0

What a tranquil, beautiful spot!! We could not have more pleased with the quaint little cottage! Everything was utterly spotless, the bed was perfectly comfortable and the sounds of birds made falling asleep easy! The separate bathroom was also spotless! The outdoor lighting, the location, and the hosts ease and promptness with communication made for a perfect overnight stay. 15/10!!

A toaster would have been good, but other than that, excellent little kitchen!!

"Very good"

8.0

Beautiful location. Very quiet and peaceful. The accommodation was exceptional, clean, warm and cozy. The bathroom was spacious,and very clean, but would have preferred it attached to the house. Great lighting at night, so felt safe getting to toilet at night. For a quiet weekend away, this would be an excellent choice.

We did very enjoy the environment and all the facilities ! It make us feel at home! Especially the house owner,Philip, prepared some extra gifts and a welcome card for us in advance, just because this is our birthday trip. Thank you Philip! We will remember this special trip forever as well as what you did for us!
