Everything! We had no issues or problems regarding the accommodation; the location was perfect for our day trips and there was a secluded, sunny seating area for our use. Our host Tanya was very pleasant and approachable.

Tanya and Robert bought Longridge House and Cottage in 2012 and very quickly opened the cottage to welcome self catering holiday makers. We very much love sharing our cottage and gardens with our guests and giving everyone a home from home experience x
