Very comfortable, clean and cosy cottage. Thoughtful touches with tea, coffee, milk and biscuits. An accessible home that accommodated my disabled husband's circumstances.

Great location in Burnham Market, which is a very attractive village. There is a nice garden and easy parking. Plenty of heaters and a well equiped kitchen and bathroom. Single bedroom is a bit public, as situated next to road and passers by can see into room.

The cottage was very near to the lovely village of Burnham Market, there were two footpaths through to the main town one through a path lined with Hollyhocks, the other a wider path with vehicle access, this path passed a little courtyard of shops and Tilly's caf which i would recommend as a nice place to eat, the food being very good and reasonablRead moree prices, my wife is gluten free and they were able to cater for her.

Excellent location behind the high street and very clean and cosy. A larger bed would have been better and WiFi.

The cottage was ideal for us - ideally situated in a quiet location with a shorth walk to the centre of the town. Initially, I could not get the TV to get a signal, until I traced the white wire and found that it went through a box by the fire - switched on the plug - no problem! Sadly, could not get bedroom heater to work - not used to electric heRead moreating. The other heaters were fine and worked very well. The main fire in the sitting room, again, sadly, I could not get to work. Switched on at the wall, and noticed a dim red glow at the top right of the screen - remote did not work - battery flat? Very pleased with the items left - tea bags, coffee etc, biscuits - very welcome. With the few "niggles" sorted a good property. Hide
