    Self catering, so has a full kitchen. The welcome pack - bread, butter, milk, tea/coffee etc - was very welcome. There's also a drinks 'cabinet' which I used on arrival. The house was very clean and smelled fresh. The location and whole village...

    Really beautiful, cosy little cottage. Felt very well equipped for our one night stay. The box of chargers and the honesty bar were nice extras to ensure we had everything we needed. The heating was lovely during mid October too.

    Location has some beautiful walks. Its a stones throw from a convenience store. Peaceful area with lots of wildlife. Frome & Longleat are a short drive away. I liked everything about the place. I'd definitely recommend for a romantic getaway.
