The location was beautiful. Quiet, on a working farm with lovely countryside views and the sight and sound of sheep all around.

Nothing.

"Perfect peaceful night away."

10.0

The cottage was very clean and had everything we needed for our 3 night stay. Communication from the hosts was brilliant throughout the visit. Nice walk into the town through the fields - took about 20mins. Nook farm cafe up the road is worth a visit - lovely cake. Plenty of walks with the dog. Value for money for the size of the property. Would definetly return.

"Perfect hiding place."

10.0

So rural but so close to all needed amenities. Kids loved that it is also part of a farm.

Nothing. Fully enjoyed our stay being able to hide away ready for a surprise party I planned

A 10+ from a family of siblings visiting our mother's family birthplace of Alston and Kirkaugh from Western Australia. The cottage has beautiful views, the most comfortable beds, and is beautifully decorated. We have loved our stay here, thank you, Jan.

"Superb"

It felt really homely and the cottage was very nice. A traditional cottage with beams and thick stone walls with lovely views and a lovely location.

I didn't find the sofas very comfortable but the beds were nice.
