Once the approval is made and the pet surcharge is paid, a Pet Approval Code will be issued and must be provided in your check-in form. No pets are permitted at the venue without a Pet Approval Code. The pet surcharge covers additional set-up costs prior to guest arrival and a standard commercial pet cleaning service.

Spa is very small and not suitable for 2 peopleand the fire is not in the main living room which is a shame as you can't cost up on the couch in front of the fire. Kitchen well equipped ##### AMANDA W. ### 4/10 Poor #### Bethany M. Feb 3, 2019 #### Nice quiet location. Bed was uncomfortable, lots of bugs in cabin and the a/c needs to be updated The area was beautiful and charming however the cabin was not the greatest. Lots of bugs randomly appearing, a/c unit could do with an update, bed felt like it had a dip in the middle. Will return to the area but will stay somewhere else. ##### Bethany M.

On arrival it was cute, clean and quite. Perfect for a father of four who needs a rest. He received a gift with a note, which we both thought was a beautiful idea. It was a perfect weekend away. The cottage was very clean and very relaxing, we will definitely be back ##### Carly C. Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### ANNALISE V.

Was very relaxing and despite really cold weather the heater was great. Loved the spa bath and closeness to cafes and shops ##### ANNALISE V. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2021 ### 6/10 Okay #### Robin V. Mar 28, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### For consideration The bed length was restricted due to the bed frame at the feet end so we couldn’t sleep there. If you’re shorter than 5’7 it’s fine. There is a couch which turns into a decent bed so that was a saving grace. The DVD player is old and needs updating. Sound is only via TV so if you like music BYO speaker. The bathroom basin is not acceptable. Tiny corner unit and shelf in the way. The fireplace did not draw properly. Candles were not allowed but were provided around the spa. Confusing. Value for money? No ##### Robin V. Stayed 1 night in Mar 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Geoff M.

Jan 12, 2014 #### Cute cottage Nice little cottage, with lovely garden surrounds. The only problem was the beds - the double bed is pretty small (too small for my husband), so we used the queen sofa bed, which was extremely uncomfortable. So, I would recommend that if you are tall stay elsewhere. Otherwise it's a great little cottage! ##### Atheka L.
