Unfortunately we are unable to accept pets at either The Station Master’s Cottage or Applegarth Cottage. There are kennels and a cattery just around the corner (Top Dog/ Top Cat) if you’re in need of a holiday home for your pet! Apologies but there can be no exceptions to this policy.

Only Applegarth Cottage has a hot tub (pls note children are not permitted in the hot tub if renting both cottages together).

We love love here at Maddens Lane! If you’re looking for a beautifully rustic and tucked away spot for your elopement, vow renewal or commitment ceremony, we’d love to host you!
