“A lovely, spacious well equipped cottage. Very peaceful and relaxing few days.”

For a late summer break and some smiles
We drank and we ate
The weather was great
And the cottage the best one for miles”

Two of them took dips in the river! It has been a lovely stay in this beautiful are.”

“We’ve had the best time in Giles Cottage. Everything about it was perfect. Our 2 year old son was in his element with the surrounding activities and our dog made friends with animals and people.

Jones family, August 2018
