Really lovely for a short break, just what was needed. Very peaceful and the hot tub is great. Cabin very cosy and surprisingly warm! The enclosed garden meant we could let our dog potter about without worrying about him which is hard to find from a lot of holiday cottages. Very well equipped and will definitely be back, thank you.

We love this place! We first came in March 2023 and we re-booked straight away for our mini-moon which weve just been on this weekend. We had the best time relaxing in the hut and hot tub.
