Beautiful and secluded
We stayed for one night. The location is easy to find and getting access to the property was simple with clear instructions. The cottage is very cute and an ideal size for a couple. It was clean, well decorated and some lovely touches such as bath salts, and chocolates.The spa bath lovely, although it was a little dirty. We sat out in the quite garden and enjoyed the late evening sunshine.

Fantastic location, we walked into town, easy access to all amenities. A definite home from home, quiet, relaxing, and the hot tub, bath tub and wood burner, were the icing on the cake!!

Cute cottage!
The house was well appointed, clean and tidy and really nice to stay in. The fireplace makes it really cozy and the bathtub is excellent. It’s a great location, central and good for getting around. The owners garage is right in front of the house though so there were some comings and goings during the day.

Greytown Break
Property was delightful. Suitably historic and authentic. Only issue was that while we received confirmation of our booking we didn’t receive any details of address and check in procedures which meant that we had to disturb the hosts, who were most accommodating.

great little spot
this was a great little cottage that was really handy to the Greytown shops. The 'Top Pub' is literally a couple of doors down the road and had a great little menu for an easy tea. Lovely spot

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Shy Cottage - just perfect for our stay in Greytown. Lovely space especially with the fire to keep the rooms warm. It was a peaceful spot and so close to the town centre. Sandie was very helpful and great communication. We hope to stay again!
