Book a few nights away for a December festive get away. Enjoy Mulled wine and Festive nibbles by the roaring fire with the tree lights twinkling. Butterfly lodge is a super quirky welcoming property! Frequently bathed in light and the garden catches the sun for most of the day making it a great place to kickback and chill, listen and watch the bird life and admire the hill views. Set in an Area of outstanding Natural Beauty a conservation area and a UNESCO geopark. The large coach doors are impressive and everyone comments on how inviting it makes the place opening the living area out into the garden with the trees and views beyond and the views out across the valley. The cottage is warm and cosy with exposed stonewalls, beams, a real fire and importantly, comfortable sofas and beds. There is something a little bit quirky and different about the decor which guests are loving. The cottage is situated with walks right outside the front door in all directions with a Riverside walk with mini falls a short 5 minute walks away and the small market town of St Johns Chapel just a mile away by foot with 2 pubs, a cafe, a well stocked co-op and rural fortnightly cinema and Town hall where interesting things do happen!

Summary: Had a great time, the cottage is lovely. This could be the perfect location for you, but I has a couple of issues that may not affect you. 1) The ceiling in the shower room is too low for very tall people to stand up straight. There’s nothing that can be done about this, it’s an old cottage with a pitched roof, it’s just a quirk of the building. For a few days it’s not a big deal, but it’s worth being aware of if you are tall. 2) Its got an electric hob, which I found really hard to cook on - but again this may be a safety thing rather than having gas, but you sacrifice a bit of control, so I keep boiling things over then having to stand holding a pan while the hob cooled down. Again, this may not be a problem for many people, but if you’re planning complicated meals it is lacking a bit in that regard. Basically if you’re a 6’4” chef you might struggle. All that said - had an excellent time, it’s comfortable, warm, nice little garden, lovely area, friendly hosts, plenty of space, and a really good base for exploring the area. And the instructions for getting in are exhaustively precise (which is a very good thing, it’s been really well thought out).
