Oak Cottage Reviews

We came for New Year Eve short break and we loved our stay at the cottage. Damon and Karen are very welcoming and left a lovely basket on the table Prosseco, and fresh cack which was really tasty. They also left us fresh eggs from the local farm. They provided us with firewood for the fireplace and charcoal for the barbeque which was very nice of them. The cottage was spotless, beautifully decorated, and well maintained and it has everything you need. Hot tub was beautiful and checked daily. Thank you for a lovely stay.
Valerie
Beautiful cottage in a lovely, peaceful location. Very clean and comfortable and we really enjoyed having the games room and the hot tub.
Lovely property, everything you could need was provided. Ideal for a break where peace and quiet is needed.
Johanna
Lovely cottage with a great view so peaceful. I have never slept in such a comfy bed!! The sofas were really comfy too. Such a lovely place to relax and unwind. The hosts were great and so helpful. I would definitely recommend to others.
Richard
We had a lovely stay at Oak Cottage and it's a shame we couldn't stay longer. The cottage is beautifully decorated with everything you need and it's obvious that a lot thought and care has gone into each detail. The hot tub is lovely anytime of day. The games room and field to play sports is a good distraction for children. The hosts were always on hand when we needed assistance and I look forward to returning with other family members.
Lovely peaceful location. The cottage was well maintained with good facilities, and everything we needed for a lovely weeks stay. We particularly liked the friendly swiftsswallows which were flying around and nesting under the eaves.
An excellent and well equipped cottage, in a beautiful and peaceful location. The accommodation was spotless and well furnished. The owners were friendly and the provision of a cake and milk etc on arrival was most appreciated. A very minor issue, but a couple more dishwasher tablets would have been most welcome as we had to buy a whole box for a couple of washes. Thank you for a lovely stay.
Robert
Beautiful place, accommodation was excellent, clean, comfortable and beautifully done. Very well equipped, owner was very helpful. Hot tub was beautiful and checked daily.
Michelle
Excellent accommodation and facilities, spotlessly clean, extremely well appointed and in a beautiful country setting. Very congenial and helpful hosts. Thank you for an amazing break. Well be back!
Hannah
We would highly recommend the cottage to all, suitable for both a family or a group of friends. It had all the essentials and more!! There was nothing we were short of. All 5 of us had the best night sleep on both nights and the comfort of the beds had a lot to do with this. We were amazed at how clean the whole cottage was, the beds were as if it had never been used and the hot tub was extremely clean and well maintained. We would love to come back, and for longer next time!!
Gautier
We were welcomed with a cake and Easter eggs. The cottage was comfortable, clean and warm. We could find everything we needed for cooking. Having access to a game room table tennis, pool table, ... was a plus. The owners were very friendly. Damon gave us some good suggestions for walks and provided us with firewood which was very nice of him. We would definitively recommend the Oak Cottage to family and friends.
One of the BEST cottages we have ever stayed in. The little welcome gifts were a delight. Everything was so clean and tidy. Amazing! Had the best few days away and will be recommending to friends and family.
The cottage was amazing, it was so clean I couldnt fault it. All the facilities that you need and a lovely welcome pack on arrival. The owners live on site and were more than accommodating. Be prepared to drive as it is a little way out and the roads are really narrow so prob not the best for cycling.
Rachel
Issues with all the showers and if this can be sorted then the rating would be totally different ability to have a hot shower or bath is a basic requirement.
Brenda
The property is beautifully furnished and decorated, it is comfortable and practical. The garden has its own hedge giving privacy when using the glorious hot tub. The owners are friendly and helpful.
