Reviews
"What a lovely break. We had great weather and the Dodd cottage was fantastic. The cottage was very clean and the owners gave us fresh duck eggs to boot. We really enjoyed it"
"What a great place, grade 2 listed farm house that has been made into holiday cottages. When we arrived the owners had left a cake, sweets, and also milk in the fridge. It was great with everything you need. It had a dish washer and washing machine and they supplied all the cleaning equipment needed to use these machines. The cottage was warm and big enough for the four of us and the dog. It had a games room with table tennis, table football and loads of games and dvd's. The beds were very confortable and bedding was warm and clean. Hair dryer supplied, boxes of tissues in bedroom amd living room. We will be booking again had a great stay."
