Exquisite cottage garden stay
We absolutely loved our stay at the cotrage. We both love gardens, so it's setting in a garden was the icing on top of an already great experience.Generous breakfast supplies, a complementary bottle of wine and cheese as well as fire wood being topped up during our stay made us feel very welcomed. Having a fire on a cold night is such a joy!The Smart TV allowed me to cast Amazon Prime and a fitness app that I use from my phone to the TV. Perfect!We also used some of the vouchers that are ptovided for guests. Thank you Alana and Kay for making our stay perfect.

Excellent escape in amazing garden setting.
We felt like we had the whole garden to ourselves. The cottage was comfortable and had everything we needed including a cozy fire. Lots of treats here for those who stay.

Excellent
Impeccable on probably every front, a very special place. Thanks Kay and the lovely Rosie for particularly the generosity of provisions, those of us who've visited multiple SA locations know that what you offer is well above and beyond the norm.

Gorgeous cottage
Thank you Alana for accomodating us for our 3 night stay. I also enjoyed meeting you. Spud enjoyed playing with Teddy! While we thoroughly enjoyed our stay, not being able to use the wifi, as advertised, put quite the dampener on our stay. I have a business to run, wifi access was imperative over that 4 day period. We were told 2 hours prior to checkin that the wifi was playing up, which allowed us no time to pre-plan our stay, resulting in us having to take 2 trips every day to the local pub, to use their wifi so i could run my business. I suggest removing the use of wifi in your cottage, as it clearly doesnt work in the cottage and will allow people to make other arrangements with your smart tv. Hoping the feedback is welcomed as the cottage and surroundings were lovely. We just felt for the large amount of money that we paid for this 3 night stay, should have allowed easy use of wifi and in our eyes, this reduced the value of what we paid, as this was one of the reasons we chose your cottage. All the best, Sarah and Ben

A step back in time and a touch of nostalgia
This quaint little cottage presented true to its description and we were delighted . We had two comfortable nights and would happily return to
enjoy the gardens in full bloom.
Thank you to a lovely host.
