Brilliant cottage! Myself and my girlfriend had a few days away before christmas and Benchmark Cotta
Brilliant cottage! Myself and my girlfriend had a few days away before christmas and Benchmark Cottage was just what we needed to relax and recharge. We were welcomed with clear instructions and easy to use equipment. The cottage was decorated for christmas and the welcome basket was a lovely touch too. The sun room is great as you can relax and watch birds and the river going by down near the hillside. Excellent communication with the hosts pre and during the stay too - Would strongly recommend!

An amazing place to stay 😊
This place was of a very high standard. One entered via a lovely sunroom with a comfortable couch and a view over the garden where we could see the birds on the bird feeder and the two naughty grey squirrels stealing the bird food. The kitchen/diner had everything including an Aga! On the table there was a heart shaped basket with treats in it too. The whole place was spotless and there was a comfortable lounge and TV. The bed was also very comfortable and we highly recommend this as a great place to stay.
