The cottage was used during the 1950s by the family of future-Led Zeppelin vocalist Robert Plant as a holiday home . In 1970 , Plant and guitarist Jimmy Page spent time there after a long and gruelling concert tour of North America . Though the cottage had no running water or electricity , they used it as a retreat to write and record some of their third album , '' Led Zeppelin III '' . People at the cottage during this time were Plant 's wife Maureen and 18-month-old daughter Carmen , Page 's girlfriend Charlotte Martin , and Led Zeppelin roadies Clive Coulson and Sandy MacGregor
