Finest Retreats - Sandhill Cottage with hot tub

The property was as the photos described and it was an absolutely stunning location. The suit of armour was really cool! Despite the suggestions below we would definitely come and stay again, the whole place was really relaxing and comfortable and felt like being in an episode of Jonathan Creek.

Lovely, different and cosy. Unfortunately there is hornets nesting and camping in the house. Not a host issue, just something that needs tending to!

The cottage was very well equipped and well kept. It was a very peaceful stay, we thoroughly enjoyed the whole week.

Our group had a wonderful stay in this property. A beautiful historical house, cosy kitchen and fireplace to play board games in front of (or watch the rugby instead). Corner store was easily walkable, so too the local pub (we recommend the Crown).

The cottage was gorgeous, clean and cosy, and as expected. They had a Christmas tree and cute fairy lights which created a festive atmosphere and had kindly left a couple of streaming services signed in to the TV so we could watch stuff. The hot tub was superb and the grounds were at our disposal, although we didn&#39t end up using them. Didn&#39t have any run-ins with the hosts, and felt very at home and welcome to roam around. Even though the cottage is from the 14th century it has been modernised, with central heating and hot water always on, which was great as we had kids with us. Great to have a washer&#47dryer too. Excellent location, 15 min walk to a Co-op and Waitrose, and a lovely coffee shop, very near a train station and nice trails around. The village is super cute too and was wonderfully lit for Christmas. Good enough communication before arrival, although I had to follow up a couple of times for a few things. It was through an agent, who had to keep going back to the owner, which probably added a bit of a delay. But the agent was lovely and helpful. Great value for money for the amount of people and time of year - definitely a gem.
