Excellent location lovely cottage. Problem with the front door - broke on Easter Sunday but repaired by Easter Monday so very good. Only quibble was lack of little bits in the kitchen - teabags, no spare bin bags etc. little things that you don’t want to be faffing around having to buy on holiday. And parking was a challenge over the Easter weekend - fine once the holiday weekend passed but couldn’t park over Easter itself without having to pay. But apart from that it was excellent
