A fabulous week spent at Cherry Pip cottage. Hadnt stayed here for a while, so it was great to return to the village. Well equipped, clean and comfortable accommodation and central for many great walks. Will definitely be back!

Nice small cottage. Good location. Off street parking a plus at back of cottage, although access from there via a garden path with steps not great in the evening. Useful to have level access to Cottage from the front.
