    The hosts were super friendly and were great too make my stay nice. They even visited at night to light the fire with their blow torch. The cottage was comfortable and charming, with everything I needed. The breakfast was great, with homemade muffins and scones. The garden was fine, despite water restrictions. the hotel staff provided excellent service and the location was perfect for a relaxing getaway in a beautiful garden setting.

    Nothing, everything was great.

    We had the most enchanting stay at a charming cottage tucked away in a magical garden. The vintage feel of the cottage and fully equipped kitchen made us feel right at home. The hosts, Norma and Derek, were friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. The peaceful and quiet surroundings were food for the soul. We can't wait to come back and explore the village on our next visit. we highly recommend this hidden gem in Hogsback.

    As a traveler exploring Hogsback, my stay at Back O' The Moon was absolutely delightful. Norma and Derek made exceptional hosts and their attention to detail truly made the experience special. The cozy cottage was filled with charming touches, and I particularly enjoyed relaxing in the hammock surrounded by fireflies in the evening. The old, characterful house added to the unique atmosphere, and the breakfast provided was delicious, featuring fresh fruit, muesli. Derek's nightly fire-lighting service with his "blow torch" was a wonderful touch. The fully equipped kitchen was a plus, offering everything needed for a comfortable stay. The stunning garden, despite water restrictions, was a sight to behold. I highly recommend this lovely cottage and look forward to returning in the future.

    Can recommend this hotel.

    My recent stay at Back O' The Moon Holiday Cottage was delightful. I stayed for two nights and thoroughly enjoyed my time there. The cottage is beautifully furnished with vintage furniture, creating a unique and adventurous atmosphere. The highlight for me was the cozy fire, which was expertly lit by Derek using a blow torch. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything I needed, and the brass area added to the charm of the place. Norma and Derek were exceptional hosts, going above and beyond to ensure a memorable experience. The breakfast served was delicious, with homemade muffins and scones. The property offered privacy, and the stunning garden, despite water restrictions, was a sight to behold. I highly recommend Back O' The Moon Holiday Cottage and will definitely be returning.

    I do recommend this hotel.

    We had a fantastic time at the cottage! The breakfast was delicious and the honey was amazing. The furniture was beautiful and the private garden added a lovely touch. We loved that the cottage had a homely feel and the fully equipped kitchen was a great convenience. Derek and Norma were wonderful hosts and even lit a fire for us during the misty evening. The quiet location allowed the kids to ride their bikes and play in the garden. it was a peaceful and enjoyable stay.

    We felt very well taken care of, no complaints whatsoever.

    We had a fantastic stay at this cozy holiday cottage. The vintage furniture added a sense of adventure and made us feel far from our comfort zone. The fully equipped kitchen had everything we needed, and the fire was the best - especially when Derek came by at night to light it with his blow torch. The beautiful brass area added a touch of elegance to the cottage, and the hotel felt private and secluded. The hosts, Norma and Derek, were very good too make our experience nice. They provided a delicious breakfast, including homemade muffins and scones, and their knowledge of the area was invaluable. The fine garden, despite water restrictions, was a sight to behold. We highly recommend this place and can't wait to come back.

    Nothing not to love.
