Amazing cottage, it was so lovely and cosy! The cleanliness was 10/10 on arrival, accessing the cottage was simple and we had no issues during our stay. The wifi was amazing it was full bars the whole time, the appliances were great and the storage was plenty.

Very well equipped and beautiful Lodge house. Great location, tranquil and picturesque. With a very nice short walk into a quaint little village with two local village pubs and cafe, and well stocked local shop.

I booked this property at the last minute, for a weeks break with my husband who now relies on a small portable mobility scooter to get about outdoors. From this point of view, it proved to be perfect, with paved paths to the single-level Lodge, and a short lane to the canal for flat towpath explorations and access to the local canal-side Shop & CaRead morefe or pub. Secluded properties, lovely views, beautiful birdsong, plus hot tubs for those who wish. Hide

The wonderful and well equipped lodge was set in a very peaceful and beautiful location with walks along the canal or up into the mountains from the door. Wildlife in abundance, a place to unwind!
