“The cottage was as expected based on the photos.”

There wasn't enough hand soap or toilet paper provided for our stay which was an inconvenience. The pub nextdoor wasn't noisy but I don't recommend going there for food - you're basically getting frozen ready meals at restaurant prices.

Thank you for your feedback. The cottage is self-catering, and the amenities provided are intended to help guests during their stay rather than provide every item they may need. We have also checked the pub menu. Only two items are brought in specifically for dietary requirements; everything else is freshly prepared on site by the chefs. We hope this clarifies the situation. If you have any further questions, please don’t hesitate to get in touch Property Owner

“Lovely property - clean and comfortable.”

We were 2 families staying together (2 adults and 5 children, aged 15, 15, 10, 6 and 4 years) and there was plenty of space. No noise or disturbance from the pub next door. Would definitely stay again. Thank you for a great stay!

“Our stay at Primrose Cottage was a delight.”

It is spacious, well equipped and its setting was peaceful- just perfect tor our needs. There was a complimentary welcome pack which was a lovely surprise.It has a pub just a few steps away serving delicious food with a comprehensive menu. We would be happy to recommend a stay at Primrose Cottage and will be hopefully returning soon.

“Loved our stay in primrose cottage, cosy, and well equipped.”

Having self catered all over the U.K. Europe, Australia, and NZ primrose cottage ticked all the boxes. Unlike some people, we don’t expect it to contain every single household item, for that reason we take our own bits n pieces. But it’s impossible to please everyone, all of the time. The rural situation added to its beauty, together with the wild life. We will most definitely return it was a wonderful Christmas and New Year family holiday, thank you

Thank you so much for your lovely review we are very happy you had a lovely stay please come back soon . Property Owner

“Lovely location.”

Nice area . Really nice touch to have milk,bread,butter and jam. We enjoyed our short break. On a small note the downstairs bedroom overlooks the property next door ,which unfortunately has a very bright security light that shone into the bedroom at about 6.30 am on 2 mornings,waking us up. So maybe some blackout blinds on the window would help. The pub/restaurant next door served nice meals. But the menu was different to the one displayed on the wall of the cottage. Only a small detail. But overall a very nice cottage in a quiet location.

- Kay, October 2025

Hello we are glad you enjoyed your stay thank you for feed back i will buy some blackout blinds for down stairs bedroom. Property Owner

“The cottage was very nicely laid out and comfortable beds where very comfortable the only issue was that there was a broken window in the downstairs bedroom but it didn't stop us from enjoying the place.”

.. Plus no main rubbish bin for when the dustbin outside is full if staying all week... but would still recommend it

“Lovely property, very comfortable however as a self catering property it would be better if there was more utensils such as serving spoons and a carving knife.”

It also needs a non slip mat in the downstairs shower and something to put soap/shower gel.

“Lovely location and surrounding area ideal for exploring,However there are some essential equipment missing no bread knife or tongs for cooking plastic spatula melted!”

No fruit bowl or egg cups.Grill pan in oven clearly shows where sausages were cooked and left unwashed by previous guests. Outdoor furniture could be refreshed and lacks a parasol. On the plus side clean bedding and towels, spacious accommodation, welcome pack adequate, overall a comfortable place to stay and explore the area Having the pub close by was an advantage and had varied menu.The £400 good housekeeping bond is a bit of a joke!!!!!!!!!!!

“Already shared with owner direct Lovely location great set up for big family meet ,few beds not to there choice of comfort but cant please all.”

Tv missing in both upstairs not usually worried but mix of family choice be nice. Hot tub on listing @mums but then dissappeared. Gate on garden due to road by pub at time quick with 3yr grandson and my labrador retrievers playing. Walk around camp ideal and horses to watch and alot of bird watching from patio. Be nice to definitely come back if ; Hot tubs Gates or add hook on ( we use in many place wooden lift on/off ) Im fine with pups but others leaving door open ment i had to be there ,they listen to me :)

“Beautiful spacious cottage, fantastic welcome package”

“A lovely, well equipped charming cottage, handily situated next to a traditional pub/restaurant.”

Kitchen had everything you would need (no microwave but that was not an issue for us). Bedrooms spacious and clean. They could do with a few added extras like a hairdryer, bedside light, mirror in the bathroom and heating upstairs, for when the weather cools down. None of this affected our stay. We loved the large sociable lounge/dining/kitchen area with plenty seating. Good laundry facilities on site too. One thing worth noting for other guests info is that one bedroom is on the ground floor, the other 3 are upstairs with a bathroom. A quiet area in which to relax with ample outdoor seating too. We will definitely be back.

- Margaret Ellen, August 2024

Thank you for you fed back all noted i can’t believe i forgot too put a microwave in i now have one ready to go in tomorrow, also bedside lamps and hairdryer. We are aware no heating upstairs but will be in before the winter. We are glad you enjoyed your stay hopefully we will see you again very soon. Heating all in now. Property Owner
