A great place to stay for a weekend away from it all!
Thanks Nick and Janee for allowing us to stay in your gorgeous cottage. It was really well equipped, clean, warm and contained lots of lovely touches. We also loved the outside fire pit which provided a great opportunity for star gazing. Communication was always quick and comprehensive, Overall a great stay and one which we would highly recommend to others looking for a country getaway.

Dog and us
Such a beautiful location. The herd of huge steers seemed to be fascinated by us despite our tiny terrier trying to herd them. Very gracious hosts and a very comfortable cottage. Highly recommended.
