Beautifully presented accommodation. Well equipped, loved the bread maker touch. Set in very quiet yet not isolated location. Blacksmiths pub well worth a visit.
I can highly recommend this with easily space for 6.

This was our second visit to Riccal Heads cottage. Again the cottage was clean, warm and contained everything we could’ve needed for our stay.The local area is beautiful with lovely walks to villages.I’d highly recommend this cottage for a break to get away from it all!

Had a lovely stay on the edge of the moors. A bit of a trek to the local pub (vert steep hill) but worth the effort. Plus the Cottage itself was wonderfully presented with a few little extra touches.
