A reasuring post for our dear guests just to make things clear regards today's industry shocking statement regards dogs no longer staying in our amazing cottage (and all cottages within the largest holiday cottage group in the UK) for free. The charge will be £30 per dog which is totally unacceptable to us as well as you. We have for 15 years always allowed dogs to stay here for free... it is what we do... we love dogs!... it is our ethos and we would never dream of charging for dogs. A very sad day.Please speak to me if this makes your holiday too expensive.

A very nice gastro pub in the picturesque village of Hayfield. Just a short drive from the cottage.

You had a glimpse yesterday, and here it is in all its glory.
The lamb shepherds pie for two.

12 hour mint & honey braised lamb shoulder meat, topped with creamy duchess potatoes to add some finesse to this hearty home classic. A vision of proper pub food refined and updated for a new audience.
On until it’s gone.
