Not what we expected
Property was nice and small. Didn't like the stairs as we also had a dog that didn't like them either. Log burner was dirty and rug in front of it also. Settee had a broken arm. Dog area was a nightmare and the lake stank. Dog got plastered in mud and I did ask if we could hose the dog off as states there was a hose available and needed to ask. Nothing available, so had to take dog in cottage filthy. Definitely lots of noise as a working farm. Never met the owners and very disappointed with that. Won't be back.

Short break
Keepers cottage was lovely. It is absolutely ideal if you have dogs. There is a large enclosed area where your dogs can run plus there are spacious kennels if you need to go out and leave your dogs. We didnt use this as we took our dogs with us but it was great to have this option. The bedroom, toilet, shower room was downstairs and the living room was up the stairs. There was a lovely balcony leading off from the living room where you could enjoy the views, unfortunately we didnt get much use out of this due to the weather not being too good but would be amazing on a nice day/evening. We were visiting the Eden project and this was a perfect location, only a 25 minute drive. I would highly recommend this accommodation. Caroline and John give you your privacy but aren't far away if needed. Thank you so much for all your help with our issues.

Beautiful setting
This is a beautiful setting and a beautiful building. Sadly as you are aloud to take your pets here some people have not been very respect full and as a result there is lots of dog hair around, such as in between the mattress slats and under the cupboards and sofas. The pots and pans are very warn and need replacing. Overall this would be a super place if it had a little TLC. Please don’t be swayed by my review visit and make your own mind up, we would definitely love to revisit if these things were sorted out. Many thanks for a great stay at a great price.

So Relaxing
We had an amazing time. We had a couple of dilemmas which threatened our entire trip, but the owner and the farm owners were more than happy to help us with which we were so grateful for. You are never more than 30 mins from any beach or activity worth doing. Was so nice to go to sleep listening to the owls and waking up to the cows.

Beautiful Surroundings and Great Location
The farmhouse was ideal. The people on the farm itself were very friendly. Our dog got on very well with the farm dogs. He had a great time playing with them and exhausted himself! It took us a while to get used to the narrow lanes! All in all a great holiday.
