Comfort receives a good score, with guests finding the cottage cosy and the garden enjoyable. However, some guests mention the need for better mattresses and the coldness of the floors in winter, suggesting room for improvement.

Michael
Loved the baby/stair gate available to keep our dog downstairs. Parking was a bit limited, only room for one car just off the road. Nice cosy cottage in any weather. Ideal spot for driving to Woolacombe and Ilfracombe.

Games room and lots of games for children was an added bonus. Beautiful house and countryside views. If it included towels and bedding would have definitely given five stars.
