A 5* review doesn’t do the Ivy Cottage justice!! We cannot falter anything, not one thing, Diana & Chris were two of the nicest people we’ve had the pleasure of meeting! From the moment we arrived we were greeted by the wonderful Diana whose warm & friendly demeanour had us hooked straight away!We checked in briefly before heading off to my sisters wedding, upon our return later, slightly merry, Diana & Chris’ dynamics topped off our evening for the absolute better!We had everything we could possibly need even if we didn’t need it, it was there.The bed was really comfortable and after a lovely nights sleep we went downstairs to a continental breakfast which included an array of cereals, homemade jams & spreads, we were made tea & toast to order along with a beautiful fruit salad, all grown in the garden and a honey yoghurt.Accompanied by Peanut the cat it was a perfect healthy breakfast that made our day!We definitely recommend this gorgeous smelling cottage not only for its charm but for the hosts alone!Now just trying to think of something to do close by in the future so we can stay again!Lots of loveHannah & Lee

OK its taken me a week to write this review as I did not want everybody to know how good it is and stop me from getting backThis is without a doubt the most relaxing break away I've undertaken its in the middle of nowhere there was no TV in my room so I could just lay there read a book and listen to the birds and horsesNext the breakfast I love a good fry upHowever this was not a option here so I had to have fresh fruit. Yougert a huge choice of cereal and wholemeal toastDear I say it one of the best and healthy breakfast I would never order this but am so glad I did although it was only a night away as I was working nearby it felt more like a retreat I feel I've made 2 new friends and look forward to coming backAll my best. Matt

This cottage is utterly gorgeous. It is so peaceful and tranquil, a very relaxing place to stay. The owners, Di and Chris, are extremely accommodating and kind. The gardens are lovely and the fruit in the homemade jams and some of the delicious fruit salad is grown there. Highly recommended in every way.
