A slice of perfection from...

Liked: The location of Slack Cottage is amazing - it's secluded and has the most incredible view. The easy access to a lakeside path makes a morning or evening stroll a must. Liz gave us a warm welcome and we were really impressed with our room - the decor, the cleanliness, the view and the little touches such as the drinks tray and the bathroom products. Liz made us an extremely filling and delicious breakfast on both mornings and Chris was a delightfully entertaining waiter! Slack Cottage is a perfect place to relax and forget about the world.
Disliked: Nothing could have been any better than it was. Thank you.

A Perfect Stay

Liked: A Perfect Stay at Slack CottageWe had an absolutely wonderful stay at Slack Cottage! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warmth and hospitality. The cottage itself is charming, beautifully maintained, and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay.The location is stunning—peaceful and surrounded by nature, yet conveniently close to local attractions and scenic walks. Waking up to breathtaking views and the sounds of the countryside was a highlight of our trip.The attention to detail in the cottage was exceptional, making it feel like a true home away from home. We particularly appreciated the thoughtful touches that made our stay extra special.We highly recommend Slack Cottage to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway in a beautiful setting. We can’t wait to return!
