Reviews of Slade Tops
"Beautifully off the beaten track for those of you wanting peace and quiet! Lovely, snug cottage that was complete with some great extra unexpected touches....a yummy plate of homemade chocolate brownies plus a bottle of Prosecco nicely chilled in the fridge.....a great welcome!! So welcoming for our dog, Poppy too, with a bed and bowls, that meant she had three beds to choose from....yes she is spoilt!! There are wonderful walks from here too, so you don't need to leave this snug little cottage if you don't want to, or walk your dog when you've come back from a day out. Being off the beaten track is a great bonus too if you just want peace and quiet, although it's only a few minutes drive from the nearest shops and pubs. We had a lovely relaxing break here, nice days out exploring and then lovely cosy evenings in.....what more can you ask for?"
