We have been awarded 4 stars by Enjoy England (previously known as Visit Britain). This is an award we have maintained for a number of years now and is not just awarded for facilities and equipment, but for cleanliness, hygiene, and décor too. The cottage is provided with plenty of local information books, folders and leaflets containing over 100 walks along with our own recommendations of some of our personal favourite walks and places to visit too. We have also just introduced the Grange End Library where guests are invited to swap a paperback book for any of the paperback books that are in the cottage. This is especially helpful if you start to read one of our books and don’t get to finish reading it by the end of your stay. 'A real home from home', 'simply the best', 'great cottage, great location'. These are just another 3 of the many flattering comments written by guests in our visitor’s book. We also have another separate cottage next door that also sleeps 6 people. This is ideal for groups of up to 12 who can rent both cottages. For details please click here to see more about ‘Carree Cottage’. Dog lovers are welcome to bring along their dog(s) with them by prior arrangement and for a small charge. Non pet owners can rest assured that we spend this extra money on additional cleaning so that non pet owners would have no idea a dog has stayed at the cottage. This is a great area for dog owners with walks from the doorstep and there are plenty of fields, footpaths, woods and beaches all open to the public to ensure that your dog can run around off the lead.
