David
Not a Cottage, but a fantastic 1950s Air Stream Caravan. The saying they don't make them like that anymore is so true. Set in 170 acres just for you overlooking four lakes and open Fields. Dog's loved it as much as us. If you want peace and quiet with wild life this is for you
Mark
No there was a couple of issues when we first arrived but the owner and his colleague sorted these was were very attentive to our needs. The setting is delightful, it is so peaceful and the lack of ambient light allowed for spectacular star shows at night, the wildlife which we saw was lovely, the hot tub and the isolation was just want we needed Read moreas we both have stressful jobs. A great place with a local pub which was a little expensive but to be honest the food w as great. The St Kew farm shop looks like it is part of the golf club but we had the best cream tea and like a lot of places now it is dog friendly. Thanks for a great holiday and welcome. Hide
Ruth
