“A wonderfully located cottage with beautiful surroundings.”
The owner, Ray, was very welcoming and friendly and left us a thoughtful arrival package which was lovely. There was also a very helpful information booklet about the house and the area. The cottage was very spacious with absolutely everything you need for a comfortable stay. It was clean, fresh and lovingly decorated. The piano at the top of the stairs was a hit with the children. There is a private decked area out the back with a large hot tub, which was magically lit at night with the use of fairy lights. A definite added delight. The working development of the games room was an added bonus too, as the children spent lots of time on the pool table and ping-pong table. There is a small outdoor play area that had a trampoline, swing and tree house that were all disable friendly, which was perfect for us, as we had disabled family members in our party. We had fresh eggs delivered to our cottage one morning from the chickens on site and the owners dogs were lovely, friendly and well behaved. They played with our dog whenever they were out, which was lovely to see. There were horses on the land to go and see and the lovely little lakes to walk around. The Fantasy Farm Park, which is only about 10 minutes drive, is an absolute must. It was very reasonably priced and we spent the whole day there. You can feed and pet the animals, go on a short nature walk, ride the rodeo, race the go-carts, peddle the boats and much more. The tractor ride around the field was brilliant. The supermarkets are about 25 minutes drive away, with Tesco, Morrisons, Home Bargains and Iceland in the same area, along with a few smaller ones. Some will actually deliver to the cottage. On the whole, the stay was absolutely way and above our expectations. Ray is an absolute credit as a host and all the party had an amazing stay. We will definitely be back again.
