Cottages For Family Group Praised

It's always nice to get feedback and it was lovely to read this review by one of our guests posted on Room Check. 

“Excellent - Family get-together for wide ranging age group.Different sleeping arrangements suited us, with a mixture of twin and double rooms. Having the 2 adjoining cottages meant that we could base ourselves in Holt  for communal meals, and when the 2 younger members of our party went to bed at night in Drey we were still effectively in the same building. All in all a brilliant time, cottages are well situated for many local attractions. We will definitely be back! Thankyou." 

Holt Cottage sleeps up to 6 people but this cottage can be connected to Drey Cottage, which sleeps 4, to make a 10 person family cottage if required.
