“We had 4 wonderful days at Dove Cottage. The contact with the owners, Grace and Dan, was very pleasant. It was nice that there was a parking spot. The cottage is wonderful, by far one of the best accommodations we have rented. Super clean and decorated with attention to detail and style. The location is also great, near shops and good restaurants in a nice village. In short, a 10 out of 10.” Nick
