Wild Rose Retreat Reviews

Sharon

This was a beautiful place, very comfortable, it was serene and we came home so relaxed. The owner and staff made sure we were happy with our accommodation and nothing was too much trouble. First class place

Great property and location. Great for a couples getaway to reconnect and revive.

Stephen

The cottage is lovely, cosy, quiet went in March and very relaxing. The bed is enormous and delightful to get yourself lost in. The kitchen equipment is fine just read the welcome guide before you use the induction hob! Hottub is wonderful but don't expect it to be very hot and keep an eye on the fire as it needs some looking after, but once you're up and running its fab. It's very peaceful and just what we needed!
