we were down from Scotland with a young man who has autism and is also deaf. It was the perfect location for diggerland. The cross keys pub were absolutely amazing with our young man, and was so refreshing to see. The accommodation was in quiet location and perfect for us and even more perfect for a family. I will be booking again personally when I bring my youngest son down to diggerland. Beds very comfy 👌

    We loved the cottage, it was immaculately clean and tidy with everything you could need. The log fire was all ready for us with extra logs, it was so lovely and cosy. We particularly liked how private and quiet it was and the gardens were lovely. We enjoyed the hot tub very much and it was the highlight of our stay. The hosts were excellent with communication too! We are looking forward to returning. 10/10
