We cant belive we found this little gem of a holiday let. It had everything we needed and the plus, was having our own garden for our dogs. The owner Teacy was loverly, we came for a funeral and she even offerd to check and let our dogs for us while we went. The dog paddock was great and seeing all the Horses Alpaca's, Goats, Sheep and chiRead moreckens was wonderful. We shall definitely book again for a real holiday next time. Hide

What a fabulous cottage. We stayed in Pied Wagtail because of a mobility issue with one of the party. Having a ramp to get into the cottage and a proper wet room was a godsend. The cottage was spotless, really well equipped with a very welcome basket of lovely goodies which we all devoured! Thank you. The garden area was lovely and very dRead moreog safe. There are so many other amenities too including a dog paddock. We are looking forward to a return visit. It is somewhere we highly recommend. Hide

We had a wonderful stay at this charming cottage and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway. The property was spotless on arrival, and it was clear that a lot of care goes into keeping everything clean and well-maintained. One of the standout features was the shower excellent water pressure and a really modern, spaciRead moreous setup, which was a lovely surprise after long days out exploring. The cottage itself although in a block of four, felt very private and peaceful, tucked away in a quiet setting where we could truly unwind without any disturbances. Its the perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle and enjoy some proper downtime. We also brought our dogs along, and it couldnt have been more ideal. The space is very dog-friendly, with plenty of room to relax and great nearby walks. The secure paddock was an excellent feature with horses, sheep and goats roaming in the adjacent field. Overall, a fantastic stay clean, comfortable, private, and perfectly suited for both people and their pets. Wed definitely come back! Hide

I cant say one word against it, so clean, no sign at all of previous dogs staying there which is always a worry. Lovely and modern, the cottage was gleaming. A beautiful accessible shower, which worked perfectly for my husband. Lovely location, thank you so much.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the Pied Wagtail accommodation and wish it had been longer! We had everything we needed, including dog exercise space, so they were happy too. It is beautifully designed, tastefully decorated And very comfortable. The owner was most helpful. It is definitely on our list for somewhere to return to.
