    as above

    Everything! apart from the double bed whose foam over-matress overlapped the base matress, causing an (admittedly large) occupant to roll down the resulting slope! If dealt with would love to return, once my physio puts me straight!

    The cabin is spacious and comfortable. Inside the atmosphere is warm and cozy. Everything felt clean and tidy. Although close to the main house, the cabin is private. We enjoyed the wonderful options provided for breakfast. We would stay again.

    The stairs up to the cabin are a bit slippy and uneven which makes them slightly tricky to navigate with luggage. Limited cooking facilities (microwave & toaster only).

    Cute log cabin, small but perfectly formed. Great location 2 mins walk to the High Street.

    Bed a bit too soft, but ok. No other milk but cow’s.

    Cozy, practical, intimate, lots of windows but plants in front of them to keep privacy. Breakfast, simple, but nice. Loved the granola option.

    It was great but people with mobility issues may struggle with the few steps up to the cottage as they are at an angle and quite steep.

    The location was lovely - very central and perfect for a short stay for our niece’s wedding that weekend. It was bijou, spotless and really comfortable.

    The toilet seat seemed to move a lot, might need fixing or replacing. No other issues really

    We enjoyed our stay at the quirky Crabapple cottage. The location was amazing for us as we were attending a wedding at the registry office, so absolutely ideal at barely 5 mins walk. Lovely setting tucked down rotten row, so quiet as well which was great. Kitchenette well equipped, with tea, coffee and breakfast items included. Nicely decked out little shower room, especially loved the lights in the ceiling and the tiles. The bed was quite comfortable considering some of the reviews, for us we slept fine. All in all great value and what we needed. Thanks again for accommodating us.

    Room could defo benefit from a fan or something along those lines, another option to having the windows open to move the air around. Only thing I didn’t like was the bed but that’s just my preference and because of my size/height I was worried that it would break it haha!

    Breakfast items in the room was great because I was starving after travelling there. Room is very spacious and plenty of light. No more than a minute walk to lots of local bars and restaurants! Everything was ready on arrival including towels, milk already in the fridge. The nice little touches went a long way!

    Lockbox needs to be moved too low down,needs to be eye level. Bed not for us, very creaky and hard, didn't sleep all that well. Smoke alarm went off every time you had the toaster on.

    Nice shower, big towels. Good location, very quiet. Breakfast provided. Lovely cabin Would return if the bed was changed.
