Beautifully appointed and well equipped cottage in a peaceful setting. Tony and Mary are excellent hosts offering discreet support and an amazing welcome pack. We were a mixed family party aged between 87 and 12 and enjoyed a lovely, cosy Christmas break with a day visit from younger grandchildren who made good use of the range of games provided.
