We opened the cottages in 2007 and have a wealth of experience with guests both young and old. Our cottages are special because they are historic properties but with all the modern amenities that guests expect such as underfloor heating. Our décor is calm and tranquil giving guests a welcoming and peaceful space to stay. We also pay as much attention to our gardens as our interiors which are wonderful private places to relax in. We have won multiple awards for our service and excellence as well as our eco credentials. We continue to update our properties all the time. Always striving for our guests to have a truly 5* experience.
