Nice clean and attractive cottage with expansive dog friendly enclosed garden. Nice and cozy with all modern amenities. Low ceilings which may bother taller people. Slightly off the beaten track so a drive away from most nearby attractions. Local village is a short walk away though where there is a shop.

4 NOVEMBER 2019

The bathroom situation is not ideal otherwise we would have rated it 5 star. Everything else was very good and we loved our stay in the cottage. Lisa was extremely helpful and welcoming.

Beautiful cottage with a lovely garden for the dogs

31 JULY 2019

It's hard not to give them 5 stars but we did have an unpleasant intermittent smell from the drainage system that took the edge off. Debbie warned us about it and explained that they hoped it was now sorted, but certainly during our stay it was very apparent and unpleasant, especially in the shower room and downstairs rear utility area. We did leave a note for her when we left. Otherwise we had a really lovely relaxing break in a perfectly delightful, peaceful cottage, in an area we always enjoy, my sister, cousin and we, thoroughly enjoyed it. On arrival were given a generously warm welcome by Debbie and Tom, and their gardener/housekeeper. In fact, it is quite likely that if it is available for booking next spring we may come again. For me, despite the heat, to have an Aga to use, having moved recently and now being without after 40 years, was sheer bliss!

Thank you for your review at Cherry Cottage. The owner confirms that the issue with the drainage system has now been resolved. It is nice to hear from the owner that you have re booked for November 2019. We hope you have another enjoyable stay.

Excellent place to stay, superb facilities in the cottage, peaceful and very relaxing!

30 MAY 2019

Well equipped, wonderful location and very peaceful. Lovely fenced in gardens for dogs and children. Beautiful area for walking. Great village shop with excellent fish and chips on a Thursday!

30 APRIL 2019

Gorgeous cottage, set in a beautiful location. It had everything you could possibly want and it was spotlessly clean.
The owner, Debbie was so helpful by offering us dog bowls and beds. The best thing for us, is that the wonderful garden was completely enclosed, so our dogs were able to have a great run around and we knew they were completely safe.
It is the best Rural Retreat cottage we have ever stayed in! We loved it and look forward to going back there!

29 MARCH 2019

Beautiful property, secure garden for dogs, excellent condition with lovely hamper and toiletries on arrival, made it really special. Really easy to book and deal with owner to collect keys, will definitely stay here again!

25 FEBRUARY 2019

We had a wonderful time staying at this beautiful cottage. The owner was really welcoming and nothing was too much trouble for her. The cottage was really well equipped, with the warm feel of a country cottage whilst having the benefit of mod cons (WiFi, lovely walk in shower, and two lovely baths). Our dog loved it too and settled into country life very well indeed!

What a lovely review for Cherry Cottage. Thank you so much.

5 SEPTEMBER 2018

Beautiful cottage with idilic surroundings owners lovely and helpful will definitely return here

16 AUGUST 2018

The cottage was well equipped and the owner very nice. The garden was secure for our dog which was very helpful. I did find the en suite bathrooms odd without doors. Still on the bathrooms there is only one proper shower and at this price I think two would be normal. Overall though a nice place for a relaxing two weeks.

18 AUGUST 2018

Thank you for your review for our lovely property Cherry Cottage. The quirky design of the bathrooms is very much personal choice and as well as the shower there are, of course, baths in each of the en-suites.

19 JULY 2018

This was the first time that we have booked with Rural Retreats and were not disappointed with their service. As for Cherry Cottage. It's idyllic, a really home from home cottage. A perfect location to relax and unwind which was spot on for our needs; 4 adults, 1 three year old and a dog.If you like country cottages and gardens then this is the place for you. Child and dog friendly. The owner, who is a lovely lady could not do enough for us and nothing was to much trouble. The cottage is clean with a well equipped kitchen covering all your catering requirements. Bedrooms & bathrooms were spotless. However, the pillows could have been better. Would we return..... YES most definitely.

15 MAY 2018

Perfect location, rural but not too far away from amenities, beautifully furnished cottage, we felt relaxed and at home the minute we arrived, even the doggies were relaxed and happy!

10 MAY 2018

Lovely house and gardens, everything you could need provided, great kitchen, dining and sitting room communal spaces, comfortable beds, and the AGA 🤗

3 MAY 2018

Great location. No problems. Clean and functional

20 APRIL 2018

A beautiful property in an excellent setting and location. Our party were extremely comfortable and very well rested and relaxed. Our four legged friends were made very welcome and enjoyed their stay every bit as much as we did.

12 MARCH 2018

The owner was so kind by allowing us early entry as it was so cold and snowy. The fire was lit for us and she provided lots of extras for our two and a half year old. The cottage was warm and welcoming and well equipped. It was in a lovely quiet location and we always appreciate adequate parking as was provided there.

14 MARCH 2018

Cherry Cottage is a new property which is proving very popular and has lovely reviews. Thank you so much for leaving yours.

5 MARCH 2018

Location and quality of cottage

5 FEBRUARY 2018

This was a wonderful cottage stay. Great location in a lovely friendly village in an elegant, luxurious feeling cottage. We were very impressed with the toddler proofing and provision of age appropriate toys for our children which made the stay with our young family fun and safe for all. Everything much exceeded our expectations. Thanks so much for going above and beyond
