Stunningly beautiful
We stayed at The Garden Cottage for our honeymoon. We could not have picked a better place! The grounds and perfectly landscaped gardens and forest are spectacular during the day and night. The hot tub with garden views is absolutely beautiful and everything in the cottage is thoughtfully designed and super comfy. Communication with Emelia was so easy and she was quick to respond.

Wonderful short visit
Super comfortable stay - great spa, all the kitcheny things you’d need and a lovely outdoor area. Short stay but the environment made it relaxing and seemingly longer
