"Hi there Liz & Mike, I recently had the pleasure of spending a few nights in your Thyme cottages with my parents (and their little dog), and it's fair to say that we have all fallen for your little slice of paradise. Seeing as we so thoroughly enjoyed our thyme (sorry, couldn't resist) there, I thought that I would book my parents back in for a few nights in as their Christmas present. Please let me know if this is at all possible, and thanks again for our recent stay. It was bliss! Cheers Greta "
