The ‘almost’ perfect hideaway! Lovely cottage, friendly hosts.
The ‘almost’ perfect hideaway! Lovely cottage, friendly hosts. With better WiFi and being able to monitor our own heating, it would be perfect.
We've just had a great few days at Hideaway.
The location is great. Lovely and quite, but not that far away from the town or the beach.
The cottage has everything you need in it, so you'll want for nothing. I wish we'd been able to stay longer and try out the BBQ hut, it looked great.

We had a great time at Hideaway.
We had a great time at Hideaway. It's just what you want for a holiday cottage a very comfortable cottage with beautiful views, it was lovely and quiet apart from the odd lamb bleating in the next field. The owners are next door very friendly and helpful nothing is too much trouble. They are keen gardeners and have worked really hard creating a lovely haven for the birds and wild life. We also made very good friends with the 2 resident cats who seemed to enjoy checking on us morning and evening. There are plenty of things to do and see but everything is a drive away as you are really in the middle of nowhere. For us that was a huge plus as we love being out in the countryside and away from it all!

We loved Hideaway, with its stunning views and rural location. We have scored 5 for local amenities only because it is in the middle of nowhere and there simply are none! Suited us down to the ground!
The directions to the cottage need to specify distances between each instruction for clarity.
We hope to visit again and would have no hesitation in recommending it to others who want to get away from it all.

A beautiful, peaceful location with amazing views and entertaining birds in the pretty garden. The cottage is comfortable, best suited to those happy to be fairly remote. The network of lanes is confusing at first and it is wise to follow Derek's directions rather than the SatNav on arriving !
Derek and Sheila are ideal hosts, helpful and unfussy. Wifi is unreliable but no problem with phones. Altogether to be recommended.
