I fed the robin, but failed to see the kingfisher; a heron paid us a visit, though. The owner was brilliant; I understand why she has such positive reviews. Things to think about if staying (not negatives, just advice): there's a ramp between the bedrooms and kitchen that may be an issue if you have mobility issues; the conservatory in the photo is part of a neighbouring cottage. Would I recommend the cottage and go back? Definitely. Thank you.

Originally the coach house for the adjacent manor house, this bright and elegant cottage is one of several cottages on this quiet and secluded site, and has pretty views across a duck pond and a stream which offers a good variety of wild birds.

Many charming features have been retained from the days when horses were stabled here.

Offering all ground floor accommodation, the cottage has an open plan living area with doors to the patio for summertime, and a woodburning stove to keep you toasty during chilly evenings, as well as comfy bedrooms and a superb family bathroom.

Outside, the cottage offers a patio area where you can enjoy the views over the duck pond or simply take in the peaceful surroundings.
