We enjoyed our stay at dumpling cottage, lovely hosts and friendly neighbours, well positioned particularly for the quay and access to walks over the marshes. Only downside is with the road being a dead end manouevering off the road is challenging

Cosy little cottage in a great position within easy walking distance of the river and the town. The owners were very friendly and helpful. Thanks for the wine, biscuits and other essentials. Stairs definitely not suitable for anyone with mobility issues but were in our seventies and coped fine. No room to turn the car round unless the neighbours arRead moree out so you have to reverse up the road. But very clean and well equipped and a good base to explore this lovely area. Hide
