Featured Review
Well worthy of the four stars
S&M, Spennymoor, Co Durham
Review Submitted: July 14, 2008, Date of stay: July, 2008
Lavander Cottage was perfect. Everything was as described and the extra touches (fresh flowers, wine and cakes) made it welcoming. Everything had been thought of, down to a wok, all the books, DVDs and games for children (and adults). We have stayed in numerous cottages but found Lavander Cottage to be well above average. The bathroom would compare quite favourably with good hotels. This was the perfect location for touring North Wales and if the weather is kind as it was for us, there is a lovely place to sit and enjoy the sunshine after a tiring day. All in all a perfect place where you can do as much or as little as you want.
