Bucket lock cottage is a unique, beautiful, comfortable, relaxing cottage, in a very peaceful area. We enjoyed walking on the canal paths. Our hosts were welcoming, friendly and helpful, without being intrusive. We would recommend.

Location of the place and the overall character of the cottage. I also loved the wood burning stove. Good supply of logs, but could of done with some more dry kindling.

The property was just spot on. Quiets and tucked away location with occasional walkers, but that was expected. Every facility possible. Plenty of logs for the fire which was much appreciated.
