'What a lovely weekend we had in the cottage. The accommodation was excellent, very well equipped. It was beyond our expectation. We all enjoyed it especially Millie - she loved the Long Room and could have spent all day there! We brought toys with us but had we known what was to be in the room we certainly wouldn't have bothered and would have saved a lot of space in the car. She also loved feeding the sheep and fed the chickens before we left on Sunday.
We will definately recommend you to our friends and hope to make a return visit some time' - Sheila, September 6th 2011

The facilities for the dogs are the best we've seen in any cottage we've stayed in so we send you extra special thanks from our two Bassetts - Charlie & Simba. It's rare to find such a dog friendly cottage and your efforts to keep our four legged friends happy are very much appreciated.
We hope to return again and will not hesitate to recommend Elliott cottage to our friends & family.' - Chris, August 29th 2011
