Stayed at the Ivy Cottage for 2 nights, I can honestly say the bed on the top floor was the most uncomfortable bed we have ever slept in, in our life's. We nearly resorted to sleeping on the floor and could have left after the first night. Overall the furniture in the cottage needs updating to make it a more comfortable stay for future guests. The sofa in the living room is like a sack of spuds, the dining chairs in the kitchen are wooden and so uncomfortable. Dined at The Durham Ox, it was a shame the staff couldn't have been more friendlier and welcoming, the food was only average, nothing special. I personally would not recommend a stay at the cottage, or a visit to the pub, on the basis of the lack of comfort at the cottage, lack of hospitality and only average food. I am sorry to write a negative review, but do I feel the cottage needs money spending on it, to counter the price charged.
