What a gem of a place, this is a quirky property but very well presented, the hosts are great with excellent directions to the property and an exceptional breakfast. We cannot wait to stay again when next in the area.
A fantastic place to stay. A lovely welcome from the owners, who made us feel at home as soon as we arrived. The room was lovely, bed was comfortable, food was perfect and our dog was able to join us without any extra charges which is really appreciated.
What a beautiful little place, lovely welcome great very comfortable room and a huge breakfast. Definitely looking to return when next in the area for work.
Shaan & Sef were very helpful and friendly. The rooms were clean , beds were very comfortable.
The stay was great and would definitely recommend to others .
What a lovely place to stay. Personal touch from the owners was fantastic and made us feel so welcome. Breakfast was really good too and the attention detail was great.
Excellent place! Very warm and cosy! I really enjoyed my stay. Very pleasant welcome and the owners go the extra mile to make their guests feel comfortable!
The owners Shaan and Sef are lovely and very welcoming and friendly. They are really happy to let you know of restaurants nearby. Nothing is too much trouble for them. Our room was beautiful. The cooked breakfast was delicious.
We had a lovely stay Shaan and Sef couldn't have been better they made us feel so welcome, The Breakfast was great. The bedroom was great, the mattress was soft with feather pillows and the shower was amazing.
Stayed here 23 May 24. Found the hosts very obliging and helpful. Rooms very comfy, clean and quiet. Very dog friendly. Breakfast was wonderful and plentiful.
Tumbleweed Cottage is a beautiful hidden jem that myself and Kay will be visiting frequently for many years to come , Shaan and Sef made us feel so welcome and so comfortable with our stay we wished we could've booked for longer,
The Rooms are beautiful with fabulous views of the garden . Breakfast was amazing and Sef's fresh summer fruit yoghurts are just scrumptious,
We will be back again with our children (dogs) and walk through the village,
May the Force be with You
I stayed for one night, in preparation for a business meeting the following day. The owners were so welcoming and the room was fabulous! The owners really have gone over and above with the little luxury touches, which made the room so cosy and impressive. I will definitely stay here again.
Tumbleweed Cottage is excellent in every way; the location is tranquil and the room was lovely. Seth and Sean are wonderful hosts who made us feel right at home, we cannot have been more satisfied with our stay, we only regret we could not stay longer.
Loved my stay here. The hosts put the same attitude to customer care as they did on the huge refurb project that is on photos as you go up the stairs. Very welcoming - met me at the door as I arrived, quick navigation and into the room quickly. Fab place, wonderful view and garden with lovely hosts, amazing breakfast. Highly recommended
We were most impressed with the welcome we received and subsequent friendly service. Shaan and Seth were charming and couldn't do enough. The cottage was lovely and ideally situated for exploring the area. We wish them every success at Tumbleweed. They deserve it
Where do we even start?
A truly wonderful stay from start to finish. Shaan and Sef are fantastic hosts and made us feel comfortable from start to finish.
My husband and I stayed here for 2 nights for a friends wedding and the location was perfect. The area is very quiet and extremely beautiful. The bed was very comfortable, the shower was really powerful and the breakfast was really tasty!
Thankyou so much Shaan and Sef, you went above and beyond for us, from moving us to the bigger room, to the wedding essentials pack, to the takeaway breakfast on the Sunday!
The Sunday brekfast was greatly enjoyed on our car journey home and certainly helped the hangover😉.
Overall, you are both truly naturals and hosting and we could not fault anything.
Occasionally you unearth a diamond and despite its name Tumbleweed is the brightest of diamonds!!
Fabulous welcome and shown around the room with explanation on dinner ( if required) and breakfast order.
Rooms are very well equipped and decorated to a very high standard- amazingly comfortable bed with high quality simba mattress.
The tea and coffee tray is accompanied by biscuits chocolate and small fruit juices - lovely touch !
I really enjoyed staying here and without doubt will be returning- the genial hosts Shaan and Sef are great guys interesting and rightly proud of what they have
achieved!
I took the optional evening meal which was well priced well cooked and well enjoyed!
Thanks Guys an amazing stay !
