  • Calum

    The cottage was comfortable and homely and had a good range of facilities. It was a relaxing stay and we didn't miss having a TV or a dishwasher. The open fire was idyllic. The owners could not have been any more helpful and we would thoroughly recommend this cottage to others.

  • Pieter

    And the house was just lovely. The only thing missing is a diswasher. But I have to admit, I didn't mind doing the dishes by hand :-)

  • Sandra

    It was exactly as described, but better. Everything you could possibly want, is there. The place has a lovely atmosphere. There are enough corners to pull back in a comfy chair. The furniture is clean and comfortable. Highly recommended! The host easy to reach.
