We had a wonderful week at Galtons Cottage. We had a range of age groups in our party, there is so much room at the cottage. The location is lovely and so near to a lot of venues. The attention to detail was amazing. We had a lot of happy times around the amazing kitchen table. The log burner was very welcome, especially after a long walk. I can't recommend Galtons Cottage enough. We would very much like to return there in the future.
