Our hosts were very communicative and made sure we had everything we need. The cottage is an absolute delight, all amenities are catered for. Be aware that if you are not very fit or have limited mobility, this place is on the top of a steep hill, we ended up having to Uber a fair bit. There is only 2 hour parking during the day, so be mindful of that. The bed wasn’t very comfy for me and in spite of there being 12 pillows throughout the cottage they were all the same and I found it hard to sleep comfortably. The bathroom taps are hard to use, but the shower is hot and again, all amenities provided. If you love uphill walks and really old amazing places, this is the place for you! I loved staying here and would have probably given 5 stars if I wasn’t a fat, unfit old woman who finds it hard to sleep.

The cottage was so beautiful, the heating was perfect, and everything was very clean, we felt very safe and comfortable, quick and cheap uber to all the shops and markets, a few steps to the cottage could be difficult for some .

As the description says, an older cottage with a few modern inclusions. In need of a few repairs but quite comfortable. Courtyard private and sheltered, but stairs to back garden were falling apart and dangerous. Disappointed with the additional A35 for damage waiver and not being told detail about parking availability. Yes you can park on the street, but 2 hour limit during the week. Would have been useful to have use of owner's parking permit and/or provided with some advice as to where else to park for free. Instead of walking to town (as suggested) we had to drive and pay for parking there. A few things that could easily be rectified and make the stay more enjoyable.
