Very well equipped cottage, spotlessly clean throughout. It is very small, as described, and I think it might be a challenge to have two people and three dogs staying there but it is ideal for one man and his dog. The location is good with pleasant walking to be had without using the car. The owners are right next door which, as is so often the casRead moree, is cleverly hidden in all the photos, so do not expect it to be remote. But they were totally unintrusive. Hide

Lovely quaint cottage, comfortable beds and furniture and well provided with items required in the kitchen.

We had booked this holiday as a stop over for visiting family and friends. What a treasure of a find. Location super. The garden for the dogs was great, secure and plenty of space to roam about.

Cosy Nook is located in a delightful area. The Staffordshire Way on the doorstep, ideal for dog walking. Many other walks just a stroll or short drive away. Also plenty of quaint villages and towns close by for shopping and dining. The Knot Inn, a stones throw from the cottage, dog friendly and lovely food. The cottage is beautiful, very comfortablRead moree and very well equipped. Faultless really. Hide
