    “Wayside cottage is in a great location with walks from the door.”

    Inside we found the cottage extremely clean with lots of equipment in the kitchen. We found it very cosy and comfortable and with the log fire roaring and a large wine we were nodding in front of the smart T.V. The only negative we found was the garden was small for our active border collie but we walked him miles in the forest. Thanks Keith for the lovely welcome pack much appreciated. We would recommend Wayside for a cosy, restful break. We will return.
