People have travelled for many miles in order to see Fern Cottage.

Now we have carefully restored it as a holiday cottage, visitors can do more than just look at it!

Literally a home from home. Wanted for nothing, stay made very special and memorable by extra personal touches. So cosy and comfortable we didn’t want to venture far from the cottage, so we’ll have to come back to explore the local area.
Loved it !! Fiona, Sheenagh and Morag

Thankyou for our stay in your wonderful cottage. It really is a home from home and not just a ‘base’ for a holiday. The kitchen is great to cook in, the lounge and fire is great for evenings and the garden is great for playing - our boys loved it - especially the newly added swing which was nice thought. Thanks again. Team Wilson.

I have had a great time here in your beautiful cottage. It really is a cosy honey cottage and the garden is amazing. Thankyou for the swing me and my brother both enjoyed it. THANK YOU! Kye Wilson

We really really loved our stay here, everything we could have possibly needed was here. You’ve done a gorgeous job and the house is beautiful. The only thing is we wish we could have stayed longer! The Bennetts from Canada.

Thankyou for letting us stay in your wonderful cottage! We enjoyed the break - dispite the weather! It was nice to stay in a beautiful historic Cottage which had quality modern facilities. The location could not have been more ideal for us. We may wish to return again this time next year! Sandra, Grenville and family.

The friends we had over during our visit have all sworn to rent the cottage. We would love to stay again and very much enjoyed ourselves. The cottage is suberbly appointed and the kitchen is wonderful to work in. The utensils provided for use were also quality which is heaven for someone who loves to cook.

We’ve spent a wonderful week at Fern cottage and what a hidden gem it is! Took some fantastic photos of the wildlife in the garden although Mr Badger continues to be camera shy. I can’t thank you enough for such a wonderful place to escape to, we loved it!

Rachel and friends.
