Hidden gem in the trees.
A beautifully maintained and presented cottage hideaway. We found the property very well equipped and comfortable and loved the fact that we had our own private garden in the woods - the built in BBQ was a particular bonus. The owners were helpful and gave detailed and informative instructions and information. We would heartily recommend this cottage to anyone wanting a cosy, relaxing break.

Compact but enough
A small but pleasant cottage however not as isolated as we had hoped or as the photos showed. All the garden / forest photos are actually at the back of the property and whilst they are private and lovely to sit in and enjoy, you have to walk around the property to access them. This means that we had to lock the door as there are 25 apartments to the front of the property and you have no vision of the front door if you are at the back. The Woodlands Hotel is a mere 30 second walk away and serves fabulous meals at reasonable prices. The staff were very welcoming and there is no dress code so if you have been walking you can go straight in for a drink on your way back. Overall we enjoyed our stay but feel that it was too expensive for what we got.

Perfect for a weekend getaway.
The property is idyllic and absolutely perfect for a quiet break. The cottage is secluded and very private, something you would not get at a hotel. It is clean and very well maintained. The hosts provided us with perfect directions and information about the cottage and and the surrounding area. Will definitely be back.
