The Malt House Reviews

Nigel
Nicely appointed cottage. Warm and well equipped. Close to many coastal towns and locations.
Clare
Very quiet and peaceful ,. Cottage was homely and warm . It was not super modern , but everything you needed was there and lots of hot water. Cottage was in a great location for Shops and pub. The large garden was secure.
Gareth
cottage was fine bit dated but served its purposes but holiday was ruined because I was one of the millions that didn't read the reams and reams of terns and conditions, i think you may as well remove the dog friendly as you cant leave a dog there
David
Great place - great holiday- big garden for our doggies!!
Christopher
Very good value cottage with plenty of space and very well equipped.
Joseph
Nice cottage in interesting village
Robert
Nice homely cottage in quiet village if you're looking for modern accommodation thus property is not for you If you are looking for a spacious 2bathròm cottage with large fully enclosed dog friendly garden I enjoyed my stay, and all local seaside resorts close by and plenty of dog walks
Julie
Well equipped cottage. It has a nice walled secure garden for our dogs which they loved. One improvement would be a more comfortable sofa and armchairs.
Richard
The location of the cottage was good with regards local amenities (shops and pubs etc) and an ideal touring base. The garden was great for the dog and private for sitting or dining outside.
Kelly
Well equipped cottage in a really lovely location. The price was very reasonable which I assume is down to the age of the internal decoration and furniture.
Lorna
Lovely village and nice location
