What Our Guests Say
Our guests have praised our cottages, amenities, and location. Here are some quotes from online reviews and Cottage Visitors' Books:
- "Me and 14 friends visited Chris' place, and all had a fantastic time. The area is stunning for walking and the views can even be enjoyed from the hot tub and pool, by far the favourite part of our stay. The cottages themselves were cosy and warm and had more than enough facilities to accommodate us all. Would definitely visit again and recommend Chris' place!"
- "We booked the cottages for a family celebration. I liked the fact we were all in separate accommodation but were able to socialise and eat all together! Fantastic!"
- "Very quiet and relaxing. We had an amazing time"
- "Amazing location and beautiful festive touches to the cottage made it feel like home away from home. We will definitely be back for another visit."
